What does always having hic-cups mean?

Question

Theyre the most annoyign things ever! I get them at least 4-5 times a week! Is it weird?

Answer 1

you are either:

a: drinking too quick,
b: eating too quick
c: getting to excited and/or stressed out

or a mix of them all. Get a glass of water and sip tiny tiny amounts very slowly and hey presto they gone

Answer 2

What are hiccups?
Hiccups occur when a spasm contracts the diaphragm, a large sheet of muscle that separates the chest cavity from the abdominal cavity. This spasm causes an intake of breath that is suddenly stopped by the closure of the vocal cords (glottis). This closure causes the characteristic "hiccup" sound.

What causes hiccups?
A very full stomach can cause bouts of hiccups that go away on their own. A full stomach can be caused by:

Eating too much food too quickly.
Drinking too much alcohol.
Swallowing too much air.
Smoking.
A sudden change in stomach temperature, such as drinking a hot beverage and then a cold beverage.
Emotional stress or excitement.

Hope this answers your question and helps with the hiccups!
