Yes: Hiatal hernias - or protrusion of a small portion of the stomach through the diaphragm into the lower chest - are very common. Most have no symptoms and require no treatment. Acid reflux causing burning is the common symptom and easily controlled with acid lowering medications. Do lead your normal life. Cricket is fun - i almost know the rules. Feel better.
