1. Deep breathing: If you have hiccups while eating, you can pause eating first. At the same time, take several deep breaths. You can cover your mouth and nose with a plastic bag to increase the concentration of carbon dioxide in the blood to stop hiccups.
2. Drinking water: Drink a mouthful of warm water and slowly swallow it several times, while bending over, you can warm the diaphragm to relieve diaphragmatic contracture to stop hiccups.
3. Shock: such as a slap on the back of the hiccups, can stimulate the subcutaneous center, inhibit the diaphragm spasm, in order to achieve the effect of hiccups. But for some patients with bad heart or high blood pressure, avoid using it, so as not to cause accidents.
If the above measures can not be relieved, or the symptoms persist for a long time, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time.
