OH always subject to constipation, often with overflow. As dementia has got worse, so has his bowels. I used to give him lactulose, which helped. As it was so so painful, I also used to give him paracetamol. That way, the pain was reduced and he was more likely to 'go'.
He sometimes forgot how to use his bowels, or got bowels and bladder confused.
