Congenital Musculoskeletal Conditions

Congenital musculoskeletal conditions are deformities or disorders that affect the muscles, bones, and joints of newborns and infants. One common condition is congenital muscular torticollis (CMT), which causes the head to tilt to one side due to tight muscles in the neck. Another condition is congenital muscular dystrophy (CMD), a group of inherited disorders that lead to muscle weakness and joint problems from birth. Early detection and treatment are important for managing these conditions and improving the quality of life for affected individuals.
