After eating: Gastric distension due to gas buildup after meals may explain your symptoms. Avoiding carbonated beverages, caffeine, gassy and oily foods and tying to belch, which causes air swallowing, would be advisable. In addition taking simethicone a half hour after meals prevents gas buildup. Drinking hot(not too hot) water breaks down gas. See a gastroenterologist as needed for evaluation.
