For children under 12 years old is best not to use latex pillows. Because for small children, the cervical spine, thoracic spine is not fully developed, and latex pillow texture is relatively soft, if premature use of latex pillows, it is easy to affect the normal spinal development, resulting in the phenomenon of spinal development deformity. For small children, spinal development is usually in about three months, gradually began to form the cervical vertebrae protrusion, to about six months when the formation of thoracic vertebrae protrusion. Although at this age, the child’s cervical and thoracic spine has begun to form a normal physiological curvature, but at this time the spine has not developed to a fully mature stage, the distance between the neck and head did not reach the adult level. For latex pillows, the adjustability is not very strong, if it is a small month-old child, from childhood to start using a relatively high latex pillow, may affect the development of the cervical and thoracic spine, resulting in cervical and thoracic spine developmental deformities. If the child wants to use latex pillows, it is recommended that it is best to use latex pillows at the age of 12 years or older. Because for children over 12 years old, the cervical and thoracic spine has been fully developed and mature, close to the level of ordinary people, in this case even the use of latex pillows will not affect the development of the cervical and thoracic spine. In addition, when choosing a latex pillow must pay attention to try to choose a good quality latex pillow, latex pillow quality if it does not pass, may cause adverse effects on the body, such as poor quality latex pillow, breathability is not good, may lead to children with eczema, heat rash, skin allergies and other adverse symptoms.
