Torticollis is simply spasm of the cervical spine musculature to an extent where the head is often held in a rotated and\/or lateral flexed position. Imagine the position of your head while you look out your driver&#8217;s side mirror. This is often the position that people are &#8220;stuck&#8221; in.<br \/>\n Cause of Torticollis should be investigated to rule out a more serious neurological condition.
