I'm confused. You said he understands everything - then you say that he doesn't understand counting or words. Can he read? Does he speak?

Your son could have a learning disability or be dyslexic.  
Is there a language barrier for your son?  

It could be possible to try and motivate your son to learn (numbers and words) by offering him rewards for when he does get it right or when he tries hard to learn.

Possibly your son may suffer from ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder).
These children have problems concentrating within a structured
environment, like school. Has your son been evaluated by a trained
professional? All school districts have psycholgists and counselors
who conduct evaluations to determine a child's learning disability, at
no cost to the parents.
However, the parent(s) usually have to request such an evaluation.
One of your son's teachers should be able to help you arrange this.

Has your son been tested for autism?  I agree with iam1butterfly, request to see a diagnostician (sic?) - either through the school or privately.  They have tests that can determine if the symptoms your son is displaying are psychological or physical.  Either way, don't just try and "deal" with it.  There is an answer - fight for it! Don't take "no" - type in your son's symptoms on the internet and read everything that comes up - somewhere, someone is dealing with the same thing - he is not an enigma ---- Seek and you will find!!

I wonder what the doctors meant when they said there was no medicine yet invented for such diseases.
Surely they have a responsibility to provide more information /support (via referral, etc) for that.
Some diseases/ disorders can be better managed with appropriate treatment.
