A member asked:

Ive had hiccups for over 12 hours with two hour-long breaks. its starting to hurt when i eat and drink now. theres a sharp stabbing pain in my throat and chest. is it normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

In addition to the spasms of the diaphragm causing hiccups, it appears that the esophagus is irritated or sore from hiccupping. Perhaps your physician would be willing to prescribe medication for your hiccups. If they persist for over a day ,proceed to the ER for prompt care.
