Talk to experienced orthopedist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
the milestones you have mentioned for your child are delayed.
you have to first meet your pediatrician for the assessment of the milestones as well as growth of the child
whether any therapy is required or not will be told by the doctor after the assessment
neck holding of the child should be present by 4 months to maximum 5 months of age.
regular massage of the back as well as the neck will help in strengthening the muscles of this area.
if neck holding and head holding is not proper by the end of 5 months it is important to meet the doctor for examination to find the cause of delayed milestones
