HHi,Dear thanks for the query to HCM Virtual Clinic.
I studied your query in all the details given by you.
Two big lumps in your abdomen are very difficult to comment without more information as -What's its location?what's size, tender,reducible,soft or hard and so on.
Regarding your query for the USG-Yes USG can detect the hiatal hernia.
What your doctor might be referring USG in diagnosis of two big lumps.
So I would advise you to consult your doctor,ER Surgeon,who would help you out.
Hope this would help you to act fast and plan treatment with your doctor.
For the questionable lump at the site,I would advise you to check with Your ER surgeon..
Hope this reply would satisfy your query.
