My son is almost one and I have been pushed around from doctor to doctor since he was a month old about his left side tight neck muscle (torticollis) and now instead of surgery they want to do a BOTOX injection. Is this a good solution? Stretching and physical therapy hasn’t helped in 10 months so why would they even consider BOTOX???
Thank you for your answers. They want to do the BOTOX in hopes that stretching will be more effective.

Botox injections in stroke patients and children who have cerebral palsy and other conditions that cause them to hear pt didnt work know they are seeing good results but from what know the effects are seeing good results but from what know they are only temporary.
Kudos to jill b.
I too am a PT, and it would be a good idea to get some cooperation going among your healthcare team.
PT and botox can do wonders.
Like jill said-it is only temporary, and is not magical. It needs to be used to help treat the underlying problem (the muscle tightness), not just a quick fix
That sounds terriffying!!!!!!!!
The specifics with doctor your trust not yahoo.
