How Can Hiatal Hernia Be Treated?
I have a hiatal hernia that is starting to bother me. When I eat, it feels like the food has problems moving into my stomach. I don t have a problem swallowing, It is just that it feels the food it getting stuck and it takes hours sometimes for the feeling to go away. Thank you.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Hiatal hernia can be treated through surgery.
If the hiatal hernia is in danger of becoming constricted or strangulated surgery may be needed to reduce the hernia, meaning put it back where it belongs.
Hiatal hernia surgery can often be performed as a laparoscopic, or "minimally invasive," procedure.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
