Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic.

By what you quote I suggest these possibilities -
1. Lymphadenitis - enlarged lymph nodes
2. Torticollis or muscular spasm in the neck.
3. CV junction anomaly - But this usually will be associated with pain or weakness in the legs.
4. Posterior fossa tumour.

I suggest you consult your paediatrician.

Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
