Hello,
Your symptoms of frequent bloating and abdominal discomfort after meals for several months may be associated with functional dyspepsia, food intolerance, constipation, or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
Certain foods containing fermentable carbohydrates can increase intestinal gas production, even when consumed in small quantities.
However, leg pain is not typically caused by intestinal gas and should be evaluated separately. Possible causes include muscle strain, nutritional deficiencies, or other conditions.
Since your symptoms have persisted for months, identifying the underlying cause is important.
Next Steps
Consult a general physician or gastroenterologist for evaluation of persistent bloating and abdominal pain. Depending on clinical findings, investigations such as CBC, TSH, coeliac disease screening, or abdominal ultrasound may be considered. Eat smaller, regular meals and avoid overeating. Identify dietary triggers, particularly dairy products, legumes, carbonated drinks, and oily foods. Take a 10â15-minute walk after meals to improve digestion and relieve bloating. If leg pain persists, a separate musculoskeletal and neurological examination may be necessary.
Health Tips
Maintain adequate hydration and keep a food diary to identify which meals consistently trigger symptoms. Avoid unnecessarily restricting multiple food groups without identifying specific intolerances. Seek medical attention if you develop severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, unexplained weight loss, blood in stools, or significant changes in bowel habits. If leg pain is accompanied by one-sided swelling, redness, or warmth, seek prompt medical assessment. My recommendation: Dietary modification may help control bloating, but persistent abdominal discomfort and associated leg pain deserve proper evaluation rather than repeatedly taking antacids. Wishing you good health!

Gas and bloating after meals, even light ones, usually come from how quickly your stomach empties and how food ferments in the gut. This is rarely serious. The evening leg pain is probably unrelated and more likely muscular, especially if you're on your feet through the day.
Next Steps
Try smaller, slower meals and cut down on carbonated drinks. See if specific foods such as dairy, beans or onions are triggering it, and keep a short symptom diary for two weeks.
Health Tips
If the bloating keeps worsening, you lose weight without trying, or the leg pain comes with swelling or redness, please see a physician or gastroenterologist soon.
