Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

The symptoms of heartburn that can accompany a hiatal hernia often respond positively to one or more of the following measures:
-Avoid smoking cigarettes.
-Avoid or limit caffeine intake.
-Avoid alcohol, especially hard liquor.
-Do not overeat and avoid spicy foods.
-Wear loose, comfortable clothing around your torso.
Sometimes, a hiatal hernia can be corrected with the following physical measure:
After a relaxation session of at least five minutes during which time you have been lying down, drink a full glass of water. Then, jump to the ground from a height that you are comfortable with - anything ranging from the bottom step of a set of stairs to a sturdy sofa seat or chair. The glass of water is to add some weight to your stomach. Jumping down from a height of a few inches to a few feet is to provide downward impact upon landing that can help the portion of your stomach that has herniated upwards to slide back down, away from the esophageal hiatus of your diaphragm.Doing this you should be sure not having a heart disease.
