Pathologist and Microbiologist 's  Response
Hi I did review your concern.
I believe your condition can be due to nonulcer dyspepsia or bloating and it can cause such problems.
The cause is many times obscure and treatment is nonspecific in form of domperidone or metoclopramide as prokinetic agents and omeprazole to decrease gastic acidity.

However, at the same time I would advice you to consult a gastoenterologist and get evaluated. A routine screening endoscopy and a stool test may also be done to rule out any pathology inside the upper bowel area.

I hope this helps.
Wish you all the best.
Thank your for using healthcaremagic.
