A member asked:

I started having hiccups when i was pregnant and i was advised it will go away after birth. but my baby is 6 months now and i still have them. whats the cause and how do i cure?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Vagal nerve : irritation, this nerve runs thru the chest to stomach and diaphragm, any thing along the path could be irritating it. So an exam and testing with your doctor is appropriate.
