Hi,
There are a number of causes for pain in the stomach after food. one common reason is a stomach ulcer, other include gall bladder problems, or other problems but those are um common.
What we advise to people, we ask them to take a course of acid suppression drug like omeprazole once a day for 2 to 4 weeks .hopefullly it would be fine otherwise then you should see your doctor for further testing.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
