Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi, thanks for asking.
I can understand your concerns.
From your history I thing your child have developed erb's palsy due to nerve injury during birth. In my opinion you should consult a paediatric neurologist and get an NCV done which will show whether there is complete denervation or partial. Start physiotherapy for him. If there is complete denervation then you can consult a neurosurgeon for re-constructive surgery.
I hope I have helped you.
Thank you.
