What Is Causing Bloated Feeling After Eating Food?

I am experiencing bloat after I eat. I am not over eating and have most meals consisting of vegetables & fruit also fish & some red meat. what causes my belly to swell? Example: today for lunch I had Italian salad and small poor boy sandwich without top piece of bread. Could I have food allergies?

Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to bloating due to indigestion.

I recommend you to use simethicone medication.

I also recommend avoiding food that may trigger symptoms such as lentils.

I suggest you drink liquids.

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

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
