I'm really worried about the shape of my sons head as its very flat at the back. I've been to the doctors he said it will go back on its own but I dont believe him as it's got worse since last week, also he doesnt seem to be holding his head properly and the doctor said he shouldnt anyway as he's only little.
I've looked on the internet and there are a lot of clinics which specialise in
correcting flat-head syndrome but it costs about two thousand pounds.
Is it availiable on the nhs and how do I get my doctor to refer my son to a
specialist?
