Has anyone ever suffer from Tortiscollis

My son was born in April 1997 with brachial Palsy due to the use of forceps, he is now 4 going to be 5. His right arm from his wrist to his shoulder, was all blue and he couldn't move it, the only thing he could move was his hands. He had seen a neuroligist once every month, for three months.
The neurologist said she seen improvement and that it wold be a slight difference, and that his right arm was going to be weaker than the left, and the only one's who can tell is him and I.
Since then things have been happening to him like, he was diagnosed with Asthma at 8 months, at 2 years I noticed he was limping on his right leg, and he has to nogles, that the doctors don't know what they are, he has to have speech, and physical thearpy because he's off blanced, and he has had pains in his left arm two times within the past year, when I took him to the doctors, they said it was something called Tortiscollis, which had his left arm paralyzed from his hands to his head and his head was tilting to the left side for two weeks, he couldn't even go to school.
The Dr. said it has nothing to do with the Brachial Palsy, but I'm not so sure. Has anyone else or your child, suffered any of these symptoms, please, please let me know, I would like to hear from you.
Thank you
Nikki
