    Hi doctor , I am now 25 years old and I suffer from malformation of the skull and this issue is tormenting me a lot. Is there a way to cure it, if the answer is no, my question is why science does not think about making the bones flexible and correct. Why doesn't science want to help people like us who are victims of something we never had a part in and are completely unhappy about it?

    The problem isn't necessarily sleeping on one side of the head (that doesn't help), the cause/problem is lack of dynamic movement, especially from the neck muscles. The skull deformation is the effect. If your child isn't being strapped against surfaces or confined to a single position for hours in the day, this condition will never happen. Let them explore their full range of movement; the human body was made to move! In general, in extended periods of stillness, the body will take on the form of the position and forces that it's being chronically subjected to. Positional Plagiocephaly is 100% PREVENTABLE!

    Total bullshit the flattening pushes the cranial base the whole face gets skewed and not only the ear surgeons are just stupid wrong and always use the nose as midline while in plagiocephaly the midline is deviated so the nose is not the midline anymore. People who have plagiocephaly as adult tend to rotate the head to look forward this also causes the body making up for the rotation so most people with plagio have scoliosis. Dont believe me? Try using the neck as midline and make your patients look up and down it will look like the face rotates away from you. Plagiocephaly is not a benign condition like some would say. Its actually a top 3 worst deformitys to have because it is unfixable and people dont like to hear it but its 100% because of parent neglection or unawareness
