What is infant torticollis? Torticollis also called wryneck, is a tightness in the neck muscle (sternocleidomastoid muscle). This neck muscle connects the collarbone (sternum) to the temporal bone of the skull (mastoid). Tightening of this muscle causes the head to tilt to one side. When the condition is present at birth or shortly after birth we call it congenital muscle torticollis. About 1 in 250 babies is born with congenital torticollis. Often torticollis in babies is not diagnosed at birth or in the first months of life.
