About: A hiatus hernia occurs when a part of the stomach pushes up into the chest cavity through the esophageal hiatus, an opening in the diaphragm - a dome-shaped muscle that separates the chest from the abdomen. In this condition, the stomach slips into the chest through this opening due to the weakening of the surrounding muscles. Often, no specific cause is identified for a hiatus hernia. However, several risk factors can increase the likelihood of developing one, such as being overweight, over the age of 50, or experiencing increased abdominal pressure from pregnancy, coughing, heavy lifting, or severe vomiting.

Symptoms: A hiatus hernia often does not cause symptoms. However, when symptoms do occur, they typically include heartburn, acid reflux, belching, water brash, chest or abdominal pain, and difficulty swallowing. Additional symptoms can include heart palpitations and shortness of breath due to pressure on the diaphragm.

Patients may experience cramps in the stomach, which worsen with pressure or cold water, and a distinctive swelling over the pit of the stomach that resembles an inverted saucer. Pain in the epigastric region is often aggravated by touch and eating. There is a peculiar craving for indigestible substances like chalk, coal, and pencils.

Great distension of the stomach and bowels is also common.

Phosphorus 200
Phosphorus is recommended for Hiatus Hernia with symptoms such as a sour taste and sour eructations after every meal.
