He seems to be having the features suggestive of ADHD (Attention deficit hyperactive disorder). This can be the sole issue or it can be associated with other conditions like Autism.
It is important to look for the symptoms like- delayed speech, poor social interaction, no sharing of toys, poor eye contact, very obsessive about routine and does not like the change.
If any of these symptoms are present, you should see your local Paediatrician to begin with.Best wishesDr R K Jain
