no. digestion has nothing to do with stomach distention.
Distention is like bloating or even constipation.
If it is in your lower abdomen, you may need to drink prune juice, etc.
Upper abdomen may mean you might need to belch a few times.
Food is digested by HCL (hydrochloric acid) being released into the stomach.The hcl then is able to breakdown solids into liquids for dispersion through the body where it needs to go.
