well hiccups happen when u swallow air and then u eat too \nfast. so its not bad but in some casesof the hiccups can last for days or weeks, but this is very unusual, and it's usually a sign of another medical problem.

I can tell you that a hiccup is caused by a spasm in the diaphragm (a muscle that separates your chest region from your abdominal region). As the diaphragm is thrown into spasm the hiccup occurs.\nHope this answers your question!

"Hic!" You've just hiccuped for what seems like the tenth time since you finished your big dinner. Wonder where these funny noises are coming from? The part to blame is your diaphragm (say: die-uh-fram). This is a dome-shaped muscle at the bottom of your chest, and all hiccups start here.\n\nThe diaphragm almost always works perfectly. It pulls down when you inhale to help pull air into the lungs, and it pushes up when you exhale to help push air out of the lungs. But sometimes the diaphragm becomes irritated, and when this happens, it pushes up in a jerky way that makes your breath come out differently from how it normally does. When this irregular breath hits your voice box, you're left with a big hiccup.\n\nSome things that irritate the diaphragm are eating too quickly or too much, an irritation in the stomach or the throat, or feeling nervous or excited. Almost all cases of the hiccups last only a few minutes. Some cases of the hiccups can last for days or weeks, but this is very unusual, and it's usually a sign of another medical problem.\n\nYou've probably heard lots of suggestions for how to get rid of hiccups, and maybe you've even tried a few. Holding your breath and counting to 10 is one way some people can get rid of their hiccups; other people say that drinking from the "wrong" side of a glass of water is the way to become hiccup-free. Putting sugar under your tongue might work, too. And maybe the most famous treatment - having someone jump out and scare you when you're not expecting it - helps some people wave good-bye to their hiccups.

Hiccups are caused by spasm in the diaphragm, a muscle that lies under your lungs, basically it's a 'nervous twitch' in the diaphragm. If you can force the diaphragm to contract through one or two spasms it will 'reset' itself and the twitch will vanish.\n\nWhen you hold your breath you contract the diaphragm, and when you drink you hold your breath. So by taking along drink you are forcing yourself to hold your breath and  hopefully removing the twitch.\n\n\nA better cure is simply to hold your nose and close your mouth while 'breathing' out slightly for 30 seconds. Like you do to reset popped ears, but keep it up for at least 30 seconds.\n\nSame principle but it works far better than drinking water.

when u eat fast or drink fast the air in the stomach is traped in and then it trys to come out and this makes you have the hickup sort of pressue inside and out is not the same so there is the contraction and relexation.

because the air causes their stomach muscle (i don't know the word in English) to be excited...so the muscle will contract rapidly, causing the air to go out quickly, with a sound...To end it, you must take a deep breath and hold your respiration for about one minute...keep the air in...this will relax the muscle and will cause you to stop the hiccups. when you let the air out, let it out easily, not quickly.

It sounds like an allergic reaction to something you've eaten or put on your lips. This happens to my sister whenever she eats anything with nuts inside. It started in adulthood for her, she used to eat them fine before. Keep track of when this happens and write it down what you've eaten or done. Good luck!

hiccups are caused when your body breathes and swallows at the same time causing  spasms (hiccups)

Hiccups are caused by an irritation of the phrenic nerve under the diaphragm.There is an Rx you can ask your doctor about if they are very bothersome.Xylocaine Viscous

All methods of relieving hiccups work the same way. With some practice, you can do it without using any of them. If you concentrate on waiting for the next hiccup you can prevent it from ever coming. It takes some practice! Good luck

I think it is due to a spasm in your diaphragm. If you breathe in real slowly and then exhale real slowly a couple of times it can stop your hiccups.

A hiccup or hiccough (generally pronounced "hiccup" independent of the spelling) is an involuntary spasm of the diaphragm; typically this repeats several times a minute. The sudden rush of air into the lungs causes the glottis to close, creating the "hic" noise. A bout of hiccups generally resolves by itself, although many home remedies are in circulation to shorten the duration, and medication is occasionally necessary. By extension, the term "hiccup" is also used to describe a small and unrepeated aberration in an otherwise consistent pattern. The medical term is singultus.\n\nWhile many cases develop spontaneously, hiccups are known to develop often in specific situations, such as eating too quickly, taking a cold drink while eating a hot meal, eating very hot or spicy food, laughing vigorously or coughing, or drinking an excess of an alcoholic beverage. Hiccups may be caused by pressure to the phrenic nerve by other anatomical structures, or rarely by tumors.

hiccups result from involuntary spasms of the diaphragm. success varies depending on the individual's response and the severity of the hiccups.\n\nfor me, nothing helps of these method helps... i just let it happen, it will go away by itslef.

Jeez I thought I was the only one who this happened to. I think it has something to do with food or hard mucus.

yeah, it's your body using it's energy to digest the food instead of keeping you at a steady temperature.  espeically happens after i eat a lot.

Hiccups are usually a reaction to your stomach and digestive system getting wonky. This happens when you eat too much, drink bubbly drinks like soda or swallow too much air. Some people get the hiccups for no reason at all. Other things that cause hiccups include skull fracture, epilepsy, tuberculosis and believe it or not, constipation (not being able to poop).
