A member asked:
Help please! is extreme bloating a symptom of a hiatal hernia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: Large hiatal hernias can cause extreme bloating often described as a pressure sensation in the lower chest and upper abdomen. These types of hiatal hernias are known as paraesophageal hernias, and when symptomatic, usually require repair. Hope this helps!
