Hello,
Excessive intake of garlic can cause dyspeptic symptoms and bloating, however, the pain is unlikely.
As a first-line management you can take antacids like omeprazole or pantoprazole for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persist better to consult a general surgeon and plan for an ultrasound scan.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
