Can a hit us hernia cause nausea and a full stomach or chest pressure or trapped air?

Yes: I presume you mean hiatal hernia. This typically means that your stomach is partially in your chest cavity. This causes the spincter or valve not to function properly, letting stomach acid get into your esophagus. It can cause all those symptoms your asked about.
