Hello , your history of illness is very ambiguous , so difficult to diagnose. As you mentioned that whenever , you eat or drink , abdomen swells ( stomach ). Possibilities may be due to : 1 Umbilical hernia , diagnosis can be confirmed by physical examination as well ultrasound . 2 Obesity , as you know that you are obese . Control your diet , since you are just 45 yrs old , if your work is sedentary type then take only 1000 calories and you will get relief within one month. Take a balanced diet , so for this consult dietician and get his opinion. Good luck.
