While your current endoscopy shows a small hiatal hernia, this is a common finding in adults over 40. Regular monitoring and appropriate lifestyle modifications are typically sufficient for management Approximately 55-60% of people over age 50 have a hiatal hernia Only 9% of these cases are symptomatic Lifestyle Modifications Maintain a healthy weight Avoid lying down for 2-3 hours after meals Elevate the head end of the bed by 6-8 inches Dietary Recommendations Foods to Avoid: Spicy, fatty, and acidic foods Caffeine and carbonated beverages Chocolate and mint Large meals Meal Timing: Eat smaller, frequent meals Avoid late night meals

Next Steps

Type I (sliding) hiatal hernias, which comprise 95% of cases, rarely require surgical intervention unless they become symptomatic
