I think it could be bloating/water retention from the foods that contain salt. I do the same most of the time. I don't think IBS could be the deal, but if it continues and you have more symptoms of it such as diarrhea, constipation, cramping, &/or abdominal pain/discomfort then you should tell your doctor.
To stop it, tell your doctor or health professional and he will do a couple of tests. If you have IBS, they will give you medication to help you.
Treatment: Irritable bowel syndrome is a long-term but manageable condition. Active involvement in treatment is important to managing it successfully. Treatment is adapted to fit individual needs and usually focuses on changes in diet and lifestyle, avoiding foods that trigger symptoms, and managing stress. Medications may also be used.
