Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history of burning sensation in the stomach and bloating.
Family Doctor gave some medicines and the the burning sensation subsided. But the bloating remains as it is , started exercises 3 weeks ago, and feels even more bloated, clothes fitting very tight over stomach and legs too.
The causes of such symptoms can be:
Since the clothes are fitting tight over the legs too means this is not related to the stomach bloating but looks to be anasarca meaning, edema all over the body including stomach.
The cause can further be.
Severe anemia, hypoproteinemia.
Cardiac issue wherein the heart can not work as the best pump.
Lungs problems.
Kidney diseases.
I would advise you the following:
Clinical evaluation by your Doctor, investigations of the blood, urine and stool.
Cardiac and lung checkups
To find the reasons to get a proper treatment.
The acidity problems got over by the medication which most probably must have been a PPI like Omeprazole. Continue it.
I find this answer helpful
