A member asked:

What should i do about hiccups when i get them everyday 4 or times a day? how do i get raid of the hiccups

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See you doctor: You should see you doctor for evaluation. This may be a sign of something more serious. Hiccup can occur then the diaphragm gets irriated such as something rubbing against it. Though occasional hiccups are normal, every day may be a sign of something else going on.
