It might be a food intolerance and worth keeping a food diary to help identify likely suspects. Wheat & dairy are the usual culprits.

Food intolerance - NHS (www.nhs.uk)

Hi I would definitely consult GP as these symptoms can be caused by a variety of health issues and it is important to get a diagnosis.
A quick way to diagnose food allergies is to ask your GP for a blood test and then depending on results they can refer you to an allergy clinic for further tests.
Hope you get an answer soon.

Hi I have had really bad bloating for the last 6 months and it’s gradually got more painful and have started seeing Functional doctor who thinks I might have SIBO which is a problem with the small gut plus she thinks I have Leaky gut which is also a problem with the gut which alot of people with MS have a problem with, I have had problems with food intolerance for years but it’s gradually got worse which is a classic sign of Leaky Gut
