What Causes Abdominal Distention?

Not sure what my problem is. After I eat things just sit in my stomach and it becomes distended for a long time, maybe days. It comes down a little in the morning. NOt sure if its what i eat or too much food or its just not digesting protein. What could be the cause?

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, your bloating is due gas formation and indigestion, simple antacid like Pantoprazole taken 15-20 mins before food will help.

Take care,
Regards
