Brief Answer:
Hiatus hernia needs surgical repair.

Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir.

I can certainly understand your concern.

Many of your symptoms are directly related to Hiatus hernia.

The antral gastritis is secondary to this Hernia.

You are prescribed the right kind of drugs to treat antral gastritis.

Hiatus hernia cannot be treated with drugs.

It needs surgical correction to permanently control the symptoms.

For this Lapariscopic Fundoplication is done.

You need to consult your GI surgeon for this procedure.

Post your further queries if any.

Thank you.
