Esophageal hiatal hernia, dietary precautions are: small meals, light diet, avoid eating high fat, alcohol strong tea, spicy, sweet and greasy food.
Patients with esophageal hiatal hernia, due to increased intra-abdominal pressure, may force abdominal organs or tissues (except esophagus) through the esophageal hiatus into the abdominal cavity, causing heartburn, acid reflux, epigastric pain and other abnormalities, so the diet needs to be done in small meals, eat a light diet, and try to avoid eating high-fat, spicy, sweet and greasy, strong tea, alcohol and other foods that can easily cause heartburn.
The development of esophageal hiatal hernia is related to a variety of reasons such as increased intra-abdominal pressure, shortening of the esophagus, enlargement of the esophageal foramen, and aging, etc. Most small hiatal hernias have no obvious abnormality, but the larger ones will have obvious symptoms such as difficulty swallowing and acid reflux, etc. The disease may cause complications such as perforation of the gastrointestinal tract and gastrointestinal fistulas, etc. Although dietary modifications are beneficial in alleviating the condition, they are unable to cure the disease.
If you want to control the disease, patients need to be actively treated under the guidance of a professional doctor.
