To have a clear idea regarding his condition, we need more details including pregnancy period, birth, and newborn period.
Possibly he is having cerebral palsy or other neurological conditions causing developmental delay. In this back ground, a folded fingers and hands suggests spasticity or dystonia (excessive / abnormal tightness or twisting of muscles). Although a complete recovery is not possible at this stage, we can improve his condition by some drugs(to control tightness or twisting) and regular physiotherapy. Kindly get back to your pediatric neurologist.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
