Hi,

Noted your short history of having pain in abdomen and bloating immediately after eating going on for several months, eats healthy diet and exercises regularly, change of foods did not help.
Your problem looks o be related to one of the following:
Pain immediately of eating with bloating can occur in subacute intestinal obstruction, colitis, any inflammatory problems in stomach or intestines, Gastritis and a combination of such factors.
Hence I would advise you the following:
Consult a Gastroenterologist for proper history taking, detailed clinical evaluation and relevant investigations.
X-ray of abdomen in standing position.
CT scan of abdomen with contrast.
Tests of stool and blood.
Upper GI Endoscopy.
Colonoscopy.
All these will help us to get a proper diagnosis so that a proper management can be done.
