How does it feel to have hiatal hernia?is it viable from the outside?how it feels?i dont know if i have one,but i feel like a bump in the area.im 19

Won't appear outside: This is a process where the swallow tube slides up/down through the breathing muscle located internally. You wouldn't see or feel it outside. It is sometimes the explanation for indigestion/heartburn. It can be revealed on special x-ray studies.
