Answers: i got hiccups i just wanna no why

Many conditions are associated with hiccups, but none has been shown to be the cause of hiccups.

If you eat too fast, you can swallow air along with your food and end up with a case of the hiccups.
Any other practices that might irritate the diaphragm such as eating too much (especially fatty foods) or drinking too much (drunk people hiccup) can make you prone to having hiccups.
In these instances, your stomach, which sits underneath and adjacent to the diaphragm, is distended or stretched. Because they occur in relation to eating and drinking, hiccups are sometimes thought to be a reflex to protect you from choking.

Its when your diaphragm has spasms

Its because air gets trapped under your diaphram (I dont know if thats spelt right), Best way to get rid of them is to hold your breath for about 30 seconds

Well, Lets get really basic here...
Ok you have two Tunnels in the end bit of your mouth... One for Food, One for Air...

Hiccups occure when you get Air into the Food Area... It cant be digested to come out as a fart, so it tries to get itself out as a hiccup. there we go. =]

it is all to do with the diagram which is beside the lungs
