I found some sites that talk about this in great deal that you can have a look at. Here are some sites for you to look at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiatus_hernia ,www.nhs.uk/conditions/Hernia-hiatus
Symptoms of a hiatal hernia can include shortness of breath, chest pains, acid reflux, heart palpitations or difficulty swallowing. A hiatal hernia is often confused with other medical problems because these symptoms are so generalized in nature.
A short esophagus is typically associated with a sliding hiatal hernia (a-sliding hiatal hernia), rather than a rolling or paraesophageal hiatal hernia. In a sliding hiatal hernia, the gastroesophageal junction and a portion of the stomach slide up into the chest through the hiatus (an opening in the diaphragm). This type of hiatal hernia is more common and usually does not cause significant symptoms or complications. On the other hand, a rolling or paraesophageal hiatal hernia occurs when a portion of the stomach herniates through the hiatus and into the chest beside the esophagus, but the gastroesophageal junction remains in its normal position. This type of hiatal hernia is less common but may be associated with more significant symptoms and complications, such as gastric volvulus (twisting of the stomach) or strangulation of the herniated portion. In summary, a sliding hiatal hernia is typically associated with a short esophagus, while a rolling or paraesophageal hiatal hernia involves a different herniation pattern
its called hiatal hernia or hiatus hernia.
A hiatal hernia can also be called a diaphragmatic hernia.
In many cases hiatal hernia does not cause any symptoms but when there are cases of symptoms, it would be symptoms also associated with other disorders such as heart palpitations, tightness of chest, shortness of breath, and discomfort in the throat.
Most people who have a hiatal hernia don't even have any symptoms, but when they do the symptoms can be chest pain, coughing, hiccups, pain, heartburn, trouble swallowing. Sometimes the blood supply can be cut off and it will cause a lot of pain and make you very sick
GERD symptoms with hiatal A hiatal hernia occurs when a part of the stomach pushes through the diaphragm into the chest cavity, which can cause symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). The symptoms of a hiatal hernia with GERD in adults can include: Heartburn: A burning sensation in the chest that can spread to the throat, neck, and jaw. Regurgitation: A sour or bitter taste in the mouth, often accompanied by the feeling of food or liquid moving up the throat. Difficulty swallowing: This can happen when the hernia obstructs the esophagus or causes inflammation. Chest pain: This can be a sharp or dull pain in the chest that may be mistaken for a heart attack. Shortness of breath: This can occur when the hernia puts pressure on the lungs. These symptoms may be similar to other cases of GERD or heartburn, but a hiatal hernia can sometimes be identified through diagnostic imaging such as an X-ray, endoscopy, or CT scan. In addition, some people with a hiatal hernia may experience symptoms that are not typical of GERD, such as nausea, vomiting, and belching. It's important to consult with a healthcare professional if you experience any persistent or severe symptoms of GERD or heartburn.

Hiatal Hernia is a condition in which part of your stomach protrudes upward through an opening of the diaphragm. The cause is unknown, but it may be due to the weakening of the supporting tissue. Hiatal Hernia rarely shows symptoms; but if pain and discomfort are felt/noted; it maybe because of gastric acid reflux, bile, and/or air. And some of rare symptoms felt maybe chest pain, difficulty swallowing, and/or heartburn (much worse when bending and/or lying). And the goals of treatment are to relieve symptoms and prevent complications
