A member asked:
What is the best medication for hiatal hernia symtoms. prantraprazole 40mg doesnt seem to help me. aswell as does the hernia cause back pain and cough?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Symptom treatment : A Hiatal Hernia is a condition in which part of the stomach pushes up through the diaphragm muscle into the chest cavity where the lungs and heart are. Symptom treatment can help in mild cases by reducing acid. If symptomatic treatment doesn't help or there is pain in the chest, back or irritation of the lung causing coughing, then surgery may be necessary. Please consult your Dr
