Hi dear,
disability is not curable but improvement in disability can occur.
for improvement detail history regarding disability and birth history is very important.
so consult a good psychiatrist.
according to what you describe your child might have mental retardation.
there are many medication and behavior therapy by which we can make some change in his disability.
Thank you
