Hiatus Hernia and associated pain
Does anyone else with a hiatus hernia have infrequent bouts of severe stomach pain which can last several hours?After various investigations, which were done some time ago, the cause was put down to a hiatus hernia. I think this decision was arrived at by a process of elimination!
Dr. Google says that hiatus hernias aren't usually painful. :

Don't they have to operate and mend it, Tess?

Hi TessA, I know exactly what you mean by feeling bruised afterwards, it's a good description. May I ask if you had any treatment at the time?
