What symptom does child crook neck have

summary

The first cervical vertebra is called atlas, and the second cervical vertebra is called axis. It is two circular cervical vertebra. Atlas connects the skull. There is a dentate process on the anterior ring of axis, and the upper attached ligament is connected with atlas. What are the symptoms of children's crooked neck? Let me tell you about it.

What symptom does child crook neck have

First, a cold will aggravate this vulnerability. Children's colds are mostly caused by upper respiratory tract infection and pharyngeal inflammation, which is most likely to affect the atlantoaxial joint close to the pharynx, causing edema and relaxation of local ligaments. At this time, children's head and neck with a little effort will easily cause atlantoaxial joint displacement, and the muscles around the neck will also be tense and spasmodic, becoming crooked neck.

Second, if you imagine taking an arc at the front of the ring on the atlas and taking it as an arch, the string of the arch is the strong transverse ligament, plus several other small and strong ligaments to form a joint and connect the two cervical vertebra.

Third, the ability to shake one's head depends on the special structure of the atlantoaxial joint to ensure a great range of motion, but the disadvantage is that the stability is relatively poor. Adults can rely on the well-developed ligaments and neck muscles to protect the joint;
