Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic

She may be experiencing symptoms of bloating.

This can be due to: (1) GERD - gastroesophageal reflux disease, this would be treated by changes to the diet such as reducing spicy/acidic/fatty foods.

Using small frequent meals
Reduction in chocolate, mint, onions, tomato

(2)due to use of gas producing foods such as broccoli, cabbage, turnips, beans, carbonated drinks, cauliflower

(3)food intolerance

(4)celiac disease

She may want to consider visiting her doctor for an evaluation to determine the cause of her symptoms.
The treatment would depend on the cause found.

I hope this helps
