HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Fullness of the abdomen/bloating can be due to different possible causes such as: (1) constipation
(2)reflux
(3)lactose intolerance
(4)food intolerance
(5)celiac disease
(6)use of gas producing foods such as cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, turnips, brussel sprouts, beans
You can try avoiding or reducing the use of some of the foods mentioned.
In addition the use of medications such as pepcid, zantac, nexium, prilosec, prevacid, may help.
One of these.
I hope this helps
