Hello doctor, Please help me! I am devastated. I am unable to see my 2 month old baby boy in severe pain. It seems that he has sprained his neck and/or shoulder muscles. He is comfortable in certain positions and sometimes when I just try to move him for some reason he starts crying till he turns almost black and blue and breathless. I feel really helpless and sad. Jo
Hello, Your child may have a neck sprain which can rarely occur from injury. What is more common in 2-month-old child is a stiff neck secondary to a muscle injury which occurs at childbirth (tortillas), however, as you have mentioned that your child turns blue during crying needs to be evaluated. I would suggest you get your child assessed by your pediatrician so that after clinical examination he will be in a position to guide you. Wish you a speedy recovery. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
