Hi,Thanks for consulting at HCM.
If your stomach swells up after food it may be due to excessive gas or partial obstruction somewhere in the gut.If it remains constant it could be due to excessive fat,enlarged organs or fluid in abdomen.If it is increasing progressively then please consult your physician at your earliest to establish a diagnosis.
Hope it satisfies you.Get well soon.
