The bloating may be due to different possible causes.
The most common causes are: (1) reflux (2) constipation (3)food intolerance- eg if certain foods are causing a problem (4)use of gas producing foods such as broccoli, cabbage, turnips, beans, cauliflower (5)lactose intolerance (6)celiac disease (7)IBS- irritable bowel syndrome
You may want to consider using reflux medication to see if this helps. If there is no improvement then your doctor can assess for any other possible causes.
Reflux medications includes nexium, priloscec, prevacid, protonix, aciphex
I hope this helps
