How to relieve hiccups in cerebral infarction

Hiccups in patients with cerebral infarction are generally considered to be caused by prolonged bed rest, diaphragmatic spasm or gastroparesis, etc., which can be relieved by drinking hot boiled water, and can also be treated by medication, such as taking medication to promote gastrointestinal dynamics, injecting antiemetic agents, etc., and can be supplemented with acupuncture to alleviate the problem. 1. Drinking hot water: When patients with cerebral infarction have hiccups, they can drink more hot water to promote blood circulation in the gastrointestinal tract, which can relieve hiccups. 2. Medication: If patients with cerebral infarction can’t stop hiccups, they can take drugs to promote gastrointestinal dynamics, such as Itopride, Domperidone, etc., or inject antiemetic or muscle relaxant drugs, such as metoclopramide, baclofen, etc., to alleviate diaphragmatic spasm symptoms and effectively stop hiccups. 3. Acupuncture treatment: for more stubborn hiccups in patients with cerebral infarction, acupuncture treatment can stop hiccups. If patients with cerebral infarction have hiccups and drinking hot water can’t relieve them, it is recommended to take measures to stop hiccups with professional doctors as soon as possible and use medication according to the doctor’s prescription.
