I was recently diagnosed with a "small" hiatal hernia. I'm not sure what the description "small" means. To me, a hernia is a hernia. My question is this; since this is a small hernia, does that mean that it's possible it could disappear with the proper diet and care? I've never had health problems and i've never lifted heavy objects or been a heavy smoker.
PLEASE ADVISE!! THanks
