Constipation is a normal component in old age and usually well managed by laxatives. Your fathers history suggests a more acute change in bowel habits not responding to laxatives and so warrants further investigation. Meanwhile your father needs a digital rectal evacuation to clear out the impacted stools and you should consult with a surgeon for the same.
