Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The causes of stomach bloating and discomfort are:
1. Indigestion
2. Heavy diet
3. Lactose intolerance
4. IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome)
5. Stomach infection
6. Colitis

You can take tablet Diapepsin p. Drink a lot of fluids, take light diet with high fiber content. The treatments depend upon the underlying conditions, kindly follow-up with detailed history or consult with the physician.

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