"holding" is very common with different levels of constipation. Constipation can lead to painful bowel movements, which in turn lead to holding. (viscous cycle...) Small hard bowel movements are a good indicator. Then even diarrhea can result because that's all that can get through. Obviously there are other possible causes and if this is really severe I would recommend an exam by his Doc, but constipation even though it sounds conterintuitive, is the most common reason. Try a stool softener and scheduled bathroom breaks with the intent of BM's.

he'll grow out of it

He might have parasites.
