A hiatal hernia occurs when your stomach bulges up into your chest through an opening in your diaphragm- the muscle that separates the two areas. Because the opening is known as a hiatus, this condition is also known as a hiatus hernia.
Hiatal hernias are classified into two types: Sliding and Paraesophageal.

Your oesophagus (food pipe) normally passes through the hiatus and connects to your stomach. A sliding hiatal hernia occurs when your stomach and lower oesophagus slide up into your chest through the diaphragm.
A paraesophageal hernia is a potentially fatal condition. Although your oesophagus and stomach remain in their normal positions, a portion of your stomach squeezes through the hiatus to sit next to your oesophagus. Your stomach may become compressed, resulting in a loss of blood supply. This is known as a strangulated hernia.

A hiatal hernia may necessitate surgery in some cases. Surgery is typically reserved for people who have not been helped by medications to relieve heartburn and acid reflux, or who have complications such as severe inflammation or esophageal narrowing.
A hiatal hernia repair treatment procedure may involve pulling your stomach down into your abdomen and narrowing the opening in your diaphragm or reconstructing an esophageal sphincter. Hiatal hernia surgery is sometimes combined with weight-loss surgery, such as a sleeve gastrectomy.
A single incision in your chest wall (thoracotomy) or a minimally invasive technique called laparoscopy may be used to perform surgery. During laparoscopic surgery, your surgeon inserts a tiny camera and special surgical tools into your abdomen through several small incisions. The operation is then carried out while the surgeon looks at the internal structures of your body on a video monitor.

Over-the-counter medications can often alleviate some symptoms of hiatal hernia. Antacids are the most commonly used medication for pain relief. However, consult your healthcare provider if you have been taking over-the-counter medications for more than two weeks and have not seen any improvement.
A hiatal hernia occurs when part of the stomach protrudes into the chest through the diaphragm, a sheet of muscle. This can be caused by the weakening of the surrounding tissues, which can be exacerbated by obesity and smoking.
With a hiatus hernia, you may experience symptoms such as a painful burning sensation in your chest, often after eating (heartburn), bringing up small amounts of food or bitter-tasting fluids (acid reflux), and bad breath.
