This is the most common cause of asymmetric head shape and is often related to external forces acting on the skull. Risk factors include prolonged supine positioning, multiple births, and male gender. Management typically involves repositioning strategies and, in some cases, helmet therapy.
Next Steps
Just wait and watch. This will resolve on its own in majority of cases with no interventions needed. Try changing head postition of baby periodically for early resolution.
