My mother (96) has become obsessed with her bowel movements. What do I do?

She insists in going to the bathroom at least 8/10 a day and that she needs to poop even though she might have used the bathroom 10 minutes before. I don't know what to do. She also puts her finger inside her annus to make her go. She has been diagnosed with beginning stages of dementia.

Time for your Mom to visit with her primary doctor to see what is the physical problem, if any. Or to prescribed something to help her relax so she isn't obsessed with this.
