Actually the cause is not known. Some patients have a reaction to medicines or herbs (fewerfew is famous for these).Often a mixture of liquid benadryl with mylanta gargled, DO NOT SWALLOW, helps speed healing.

Hiccups usually go away all on their own. There might be as many "cures" for hiccups as there are families. Some popular home remedies include: \n\nTake a deep breath and hold it as long as you can. Repeat several times. \n\nTry rhythmic breathing or deep breathing. \n\nBreathe into a paper bag. \n\nHold your breath just as you think a hiccup will occur. \n\nGargle. \n\nTense your throat muscles and/or stomach muscles as you feel a hiccup coming on. \n\nPress hard against the cartilage behind your ear. \n\nPlug your ears while swallowing. \n\nDrink through a cloth or paper towel. \n\nBend over and drink from the opposite side of the glass. \n\nSwallow dry bread, peanut butter, or similarly sticky substance. \n\nSwallow a teaspoon of sugar. \n\nDissolve a teaspoon of sugar on your tongue. \n\nEat a lemon sprinkled with sugar. \n\nHave someone scare you. \n\nGive someone else a drink of water. \n\nIf you're still hiccupping after two days, contact your health care provider. Chronic hiccups can cause weight loss, insomnia, malnutrition, vomiting, and more. If you're bothered by long-lasting hiccups - and they aren't caused by a serious health problem - your physician can try chlorpromazine to stop them. It doesn't work every time, though.

Use listerine and get a tongue scraper.  And drink LOTS of water.

just have him us peroxide to rinse it out for the next few days and it should go away. If you don't brush you tongue, you can get these types of sores.

A friend of mine had acid reflux, and she said that she took vinegar pills, and it went away.   Hope you feel better soon. Good Luck

The best remedy for hiccups that I have ever experienced is the following maneuver: Take a glass of water. Sit down. Spread your knees out and bend forward with your head between your knees (or come down as far as you are able to). With the front of your body bent forward as much as you can, take the glass of water, raise your head up (while keeping your body bent forward) and drink the glass of water. It looks strange, but it works, every time I've ever tried it. If you have malignant hiccups....those lasting for days at a time, then go to your doctor and ask for some Thorazine. It is an anti-psychotic medication, but it works for those nasty hiccups that refuse to go away. As a nurse, I have seen Thorazine work for the most resistant hiccups.

I agree that spasms in the diaphragm are to blame but I have found an unbeatable cure (at least for me)...Peanut Butter! As soon as it touches my tongue the hiccoughs are gone!

At the very base of your tongue, there is  the two openings to the submandibular salivary galnd.  That can get plugged and inflamed.  More likelily, if it is a pustule on the meat of the tongue, it is an inflamed taste bud.  Use warm saltwater rinses 4-5 times a day.  It will help relieve the blockage of the salivary gland.  If it is the inflamed taste bud, it will not matter because it will get better on its own.  If it does not get better, see a doctor because it could be mouth cancer.  This is specifically true if you chew/smoke tobacco or drink alcohol regularly.

try ant-acids, they help with the sore, swollen taste buds. Also try a good mouth wash.

don't drink milk, it feels better in your throat, but is actually acidic, i've heard.  \n\nfirst, try to prevent it.  cut back on caffeine, alcohol, and tomatoes.  eat plenty of whole wheat bread and healthy stuff.  tip the head of your bed up with a block under the legs at the head of your bed about 4 inches tall.  this keeps the acid from running up your throat at night.  \n\ntums and maalox work well for me, and there are also meds like zantac (ranitidine) and pepcid.  if you need serious help your doc can prescribe even stronger stuff.

It sounds like the Prilosec isn't working, since a lump in the throat is actually a sign of acid reflux.  \n\nIn addition to the Prilosec, you need to be aware of the GERD triggers -- carbonated drinks, caffeine. sorbitol (aka, avoid sugarfee gum), etc.  I am on another GERD medication and have had to completely cut those elements from my life so I can function without continual throat clearing. I feel for you -- the lump in the throat issue is annoying, distracting, and somewhat depressing, since you are on a med which SHOULD be taking care of it.\n\nTalk to your doctor -- good luck!

My husband suffers from the same thing. We now give him a homeopathic remedy that we purchased from the drug store. It has quinine in it. It really works for him. You place 2 tablets under your tongue before you go to bed. He has had real good luck with it. I hope you can find some where you live. Good luck.

I mix about 1/2 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar in a little glass of water.  It works fast and amazingly well.  My mom always hands out peppermint candy when someone complains of heartburn.  Also, chew chew chew your food really well as digestion actually begins in the mouth.  Drinking too much liquid with your food can dilute your stomach acid.
