My 75 years old mother is experiencing dry mouth and constipation? She has no health problems otherwise? ?

Question

Why could this be and what should she do???

Answer 1

Is she eating properly?

Is she on medication?

These are very common symptons of a lot of medications.

She may not be drinking enough water.

She may be very stressed.

If you are really worried see a doctor.

Answer 2

How much water is she drinking? Try increasing her water intake.  

Answer 3

shes 75 she has to have some problem

Answer 4

She could be dehydrated, a common problem in the elderly. Increase fluid intake, this will probably help both issues. If she's still constipated then Lactalose or Movical etc can be obtained from her GP. Try giving her prunes in the morning.
