2. Surgery

Medical professionals generally try to avoid performing surgery until there is no other option available. This is largely because even fairly straightforward procedures can result in complications that can be both uncomfortable and even risky for the patient.

One example of such complications include damage to the area and potential difficulty in healing. Depending on the operation, this can mean the hiatus is made weaker and/or larger, thus allowing the stomach to protrude through, resulting in a hiatal hernia. If you do experience any unexpected symptoms after you have had surgery then you should speak with a medical professional as soon as you can.
