Dropped head syndrome (DHS), marked by severe cervical muscle weakness, causes progressive kyphosis and difficulty in maintaining head posture. This case study reports on a 23‐year‐old male with DHS linked to drug abuse, underscoring the need to consider substance abuse as a cause and highlighting effective surgical treatment.
