Answers:
Possible. The easy way to avoid a simple case of heartburn is Moderation. Heartburn is generally the result of eating too much too fast. Have a glass of milk. Sometimes it can cut the acid and decrease heartburn. If this symptoms don't subside, you may have an ulcer in your stomach. Best see your doctor.Health Question & Answer

Often, a hiatus hernia won't cause you any symptoms. However, it may cause a feeling of warmth or burning in your chest, which is called heartburn. This happens when the contents of your stomach, which are acidic, flow backwards (reflux) into your oesophagus. If heartburn symptoms go on for a long time or are severe, this is called gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD).

The irritation to your oesophagus caused by reflux can cause pain or discomfort behind your breastbone (sternum).

Your symptoms may start or get worse after you have eaten, soon after you lie down or when you bend forward. Drinking coffee or other hot drinks, or eating spicy food can make these symptoms worse.

Although not necessarily a result of hiatus hernia, if you have these symptoms you should visit your GP.

Reading this makes me think that maybe you should get it cheked out just in case.Always" better safe than sorry".
