I believe i have a hiatal hernia due to how i've been feeling since doing some heavy lifting at work. what should i do i don't have a primary dr?

Not treated: We don't treat hiatal hernias in medicine. They aren't the same kind of hernia you would see with someone having a bulge in their stomach. The symptoms you get from a HH is indigestion which can be controlled by modifying what you eat and taking an antacid if needed. But overall HH is benign.
