Hello. It appears like he might be having Autism spectrum disorder. Autism is also associated with multiple other co-morbidities like speech delay, sensory issues, hyperactivity and other behavioral issues, all of which need detailed evaluation and treatment.Early interventions at this age improves outcomes and so, I advise you to consult a child psychiatrist as early as possible for further assessment and evaluation. Regards.
