Hi
Thanks for writing to the forum!
I am sorry to hear about your son. He appears to have some neurological deficits with probably muscle wasting and scoliosis. It is difficult to comment beyond this without examining. Please consult a neurologist. There could also be a possibility of injury to brachial plexus of nerves in the armpit or shoulder girdle injury. Several metabolic disorders too should be looked into especially related to parathyroids and Vit D.
Hope this helps. It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
