What Causes Stomach Bloating?

I having a bloated feeling in my upper stomach when I eat. I get relief with sparkling water that allows me to burp. However, it returns with my next bite of food. There is no burn feeling and I don t know what indigestion feels like unless this is it. The pain goes away eventually but I am concern since I am traveling out of the country on Sunday. Is there something over the counter I can take?
