Hiccups from time to time are associated with eating too quickly, chronic gastritis, and diaphragmatic lesions. Burping is a common phenomenon in everyday life. However, hiccups occur from time to time mainly because too much gas enters the stomach when eating too fast or too full or when eating with talking and laughing, so it causes gastric distension, more gas and distension in the stomach, and the symptoms can be relieved by hiccups. Patients with chronic gastritis and gastric ulcer will produce more gas when food intake cannot be digested and absorbed quickly by the stomach, which can lead to frequent burping. Lesions in the area of the diaphragm are common, including diaphragmatic tumors, diaphragmatic abscesses and other occupying diseases and inflammations that can cause irritation of the nerves in the diaphragm, so they can cause hiccups. Intracranial lesions, alcoholism, narcotic drugs, and mental stress are also considered and can cause hiccups.
