Depends on variables: If caused by sleeping position and or torticollis in infants, this can often respond to position change for sleep, physical therapy to loosen tight neck muscles or helmet reshaping therapy.If it goes on too long, it may persist.If due to actual fusion of sutures in the skull, these require surgical release. Your doc can help you determine cause and needed therapy.
