hi sir/ madam
welcome to health care magic,

I can certainly understand your concern about your grandson's multiple problems, as your son is taking many medications, the allergic rashes could be due to that. lip problems and numbness may be due to facial nerve palsy,
im glad that was treated with steroids

The current symptoms ie ticks, sound making are definitely the features of autism, as he is already on stimulant ie aderall, and guanfacine, he has to be put on antipsychotics like risperidone to control his behaviour, and consult with your doctor about the dose adjustments of current drugs, hope this information would help you

please post your further questions if any
Thank you.
