I have a 4 year old autisticAutistic behavior boy who has been rubbing up against a pillow. He could keep doing it for hours, mostly at night before he falls asleep, but also anytime he has access to a pillow. He'll do it with his diaper on and sometimes manages to take the diaper off. He doesn't speak yet. It's concerning to us that he will get into early pubertyPuberty and adolescence. His doctor said the testostrome level is within normalNormal saline flush range. What can we do to help him since he's not really able to comprehend what we are saying. He's attention is very poor. Please advise on if any meds are available to help address this behavior. Thanks.
