Whenever I drink water, I feel like it causes gas in my stomach and I get discomfort with a heavy feeling for a while. What could be causing this?

It sounds like you may be experiencing bloating or excess gas in your stomach after drinking water, which could be due to swallowing air (aerophagia) or sensitivity to certain temperature or mineral content in the water. Its advisable to drink water slowly and in smaller sips to minimize discomfort. If the issue persists, a consultation with a gastroenterologist may help identify any underlying conditions.
