Child Rectal Problem ?

My grandson, age 9, goes to the bathroom about 10 times an hour. He just wipes the stool which has oozed (or dug) out and leaves the tissue. Then he changes his underwear which may or may not have stool on them. He does not make a bowel movement until he cannot prevent it. Nothing we have tried has stopped this habit. We are unaware of any medical condition which is causing this odd behavior.  His physician said this is not an unusual problem and we give him poly.. something each morning, but it soesn't seem to help. Do you have any suggestions. This behavior is driving us nuts!
