Hi, My father has been diagnosed with hiatus hernia. He has been advised non spicy food and other things like elevated head position while sleeping and given medicines. But his diet has become less for 2-3 days. Can you advise?

Hello. Is the diagnosis made on the basis of endoscopy? If yes, please share the endoscopy report as it will help to understand the situation better. Hiatus hernia is usually accompanied by changes of esophagitis. Also the grade and size of hiatus hernia matters.
Next Steps
yes, definitely avoid oily and spicy food. please avoid delaying and skipping meals. do not lye down immediately after eating.
