Hi,

Dyspeptic symptoms and bloating can develop after gallbladder surgery.

As a first line management, you can take antacids like Pantoprazole for symptomatic relief.

If symptoms persist better to consult a gastroenterologist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
