Abdominal pain: The sensation of bloating can be caused by many things. Medical History concerns include current medicines, past surgeries, any allergic reactions, drinking alcohol, smoking. Unclear from your statement how long you have suffered with this bloating. Best to seek a doctor evaluation right away. Hope that you will feel better soon ---

Possibly...: This could be any number of things and would require more information and an exam to help guide the diagnosis. Anything from gallstones, dyspepsia, ulcers, gastric polyp or other masses, delayed gastric emptying time to name a few things. Time of onset, factors that relieve it or make it worse, and presence of nausea or weight loss would be key to assist in teasing this out.
