    Wry neck?

    Noticed one of my buffs yesterday was having trouble holding her neck up. Read a little about it and seems it could possibly be wry neck. What can I do to treat it. I don't think it's broken but if that is the case how can I tell? Not really sure what to do for her. She's about 10-12 weeks.
