To help prevent symptoms of a hiatal hernia 1  : Wear loose clothing. 2  Anything that presses on the stomach can aggravate hiatal hernia symptoms. 3  When your stomach is full, avoid bending over or lying down. 4  This increases abdominal pressure and makes heartburn more likely.
In most cases however, a hiatal hernia does not cause any symptoms. The pain and discomfort that a patient experiences is due to the reflux of gastric acid, air, or bile. While there are several causes of acid reflux, it does happen more frequently in the presence of hiatal hernia.
