The causes of frequent hiccups include overeating, stress, indigestion and stomach diseases.
1. Eating too much: after eating too much food, the food will promote the peristalsis of the stomach and intestines to produce gas, thus the phenomenon of hiccups.
2. Nervousness: some people may have hiccups when they are overly nervous, and the symptoms can be relieved when their emotions are relaxed.
3. Indigestion: When indigestion occurs, the patient’s intestinal peristalsis slows down, and the food accumulates in the stomach, which can lead to the phenomenon of hiccups.
4. Stomach diseases: When suffering from gastroesophageal reflux disease, gastritis, gastric ulcer and other diseases, some patients will also have the symptom of hiccups, which may be accompanied by pain in the stomach.
It is recommended that when the symptoms persist or are accompanied by other discomforts, consult a doctor for timely examination and targeted treatment under the guidance of the doctor.
