HI
Well come to HCM
Irritation of diaphragm never is likely and this could be due to hyperacidity and some time be may nonspecific, and condition can be treated accordingly most of the time this gives good response to proton pump inhibitor, if this fails to response then this need to be clinically examined, have a nice day.
