The meaning is crystal clear as it was provided.

I can speculate that "estómago resfriado" is a popular term for aerophagia, because of the belching that may be compared with the sneezing. If that's the case, an estomago resfriado "belches" what should've been kept inside or dealt silently, hence a probably connexion with the fact of being indiscreet.

EDIT: A source from the 17th century I've found includes "estómago resfriado" as an ailment. No description provided, but it may be acid reflux, or probably indigestion with pyloric spasm (because he proposes the same herbal treatment both for asthma and "estómago resfriado", which makes me think of a natural antispasmodic/anticholinergic).

Again the notion of something the stomach should retain and pass, but eventually regurgitates.
