As a ENT surgeon I can tell you thatYou are consulting very late even if anyone child is not speaking at the age of three this means his milestone are very delayed the reason can be due to defect in tongue movement. Other most common reasons are cerebral palsy. Did your child is able to hear anything usually the child’s which are unable to hear are also unable to speak because hearing is most essential for speaking also. Problems with the tongue can be managed very well with a good speech therapy if any other causes there that should be Elucidated for reaching a conclusive diagnosis and treatment can be guided further
