1. Why do I burp when I eat too much? Eating too much and holding up too much increases the burden on the stomach and intestines, causing the stomach to become overburdened and then causing spasms in the diaphragm, which is known as hiccups. Likewise, eating too fast and too quickly will bring in more air when you eat, which will also cause hiccups. So, one is to eat quantitatively, not to overeat, but also one is to chew slowly, eat fast easily into the air. 2. What should I do if I have hiccups after eating? Most hiccups will stop automatically after a few minutes. However, if you are afraid that hiccups will cause problems, we recommend the following methods to end hiccups as soon as possible. Hold your breath to stop hiccups Holding your breath as long as possible after hiccups can sometimes stop them. Press the Shaoshang point During a hiccup attack, press the Shaoshang point (on the radial side of the end of the thumb, 0.1 inch from the corner of the nail) with your thumb to make the soreness last for half a minute, and the hiccups will usually stop. Drink water to stop hiccups Have the person with hiccups drink a small amount of water, bend forward, and swallow the water while hiccuping. Sneeze to stop hiccups Sneeze when you have hiccups to stop them. For example, you can sneeze by sniffing pepper through your nose. Eating sugar to stop hiccups Eating a teaspoon of sugar when you hiccup and swallowing it dry (without water) can stop hiccups after a few minutes. This is because sugar in the mouth may change the original nerve impulses to block the intermittent contraction of the diaphragm muscles. Most hiccups in normal people are light and short-lived, and hiccups will usually stop after a few minutes with a gentle massage of the upper abdomen, a sip of warm tea, covering the nose and mouth with your hand for a while, or using acupuncture therapy. However, if there are individual stubborn and persistent hiccups, I am afraid that they are caused by diseases, such as brain diseases or infections in the abdominal cavity, etc. In this case, you should ask your doctor for further examination and treatment.
