If you are taking creatine without going to gym, it might cause bloating and water retention. Make sure you drink enough water.
If you have just taken it once or twice then it is fine. But if you are taking it for a long time, please stop taking it

Hi taking creatine without exercising is generally safe, but it’s most beneficial when combined with workouts for muscle growth and strength. Make sure to stay hydrated, as creatine can cause water retention and mild bloating. If you have any health concerns or pre-existing conditions, it’s best to avoid creatine & Directly contact for details.

It can cause bloating and doesn't give that much effect if the workout is not active on the high side
