Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.

I understand that you are concerned about your son's problems. From the description of his symptoms, it does appear that he is suffering from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD).

OCD is a treatable conditions and there are several effective treatments available. These would usually involve a combination of medication (SSRIs) and behavioural therapy. I would advise you to take him to a good psychiatrist in your place for a detailed evaluation and further treatment.

Wish you all the best.
