  4. I suspect my son to have hiatal hernia.

pediatrician-icon
I suspect my son to have hiatal hernia.
My son was diagnosed for autistic spectrum at 2 and us now verbal...Except for socialisation and a narrative speech, he is doing fairly better now. I suspect him to have hiatal hernia because his abdomen is swollen in the diaphragm region. He has difficulty in breathing during yoga and moreover, I have hiatal hernia. I'm confused as to which specialist I should contact to confirm or ignore my doubts. Thank you in advance.
