Torticollis can go away with proper medication. Surgery, however, is required if the medicine and therapies do not prove to be fruitful. About 10 percent of children require surgery and rest all get recovered through medicines. The operation is typically scheduled once the child reaches preschool years.

No, it is not a permanent situation and it should be treated. Meanwhile, when the condition is left untreated for a long period of time this medical problem could become permanent.

It looks like you are anaemic. And also you have to check with your vitamin and calcium, if the bones are weak then automatically the pain gets triggered more as there is less energy during any metabolic activity.

It's due to non healing disc lesions at cervical level, due to which it causes radiculopathy, associated symptoms of pain, stiffness, muscle weakness, and the solution is start physiotherapy asap, use proper mattress and cervical pillow, if pain comes down start with cervical isometric exercises to strengthen the muscles.
