Hiccups directly after I eat?!


Question: Hiccups directly after I eat?
I would really like a doctors or an experts opinion. For the past month or so, I have hiccups everyday after breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I don't eat fast, I actually... I sometimes eat rather slow. Its also not certain foods, just anything: Pizza, potatoes, pasta, veggies, sweets, etc. Is this bad?

Perhaps you are swallowing a lot of air whilst you are eating.



they usually occur if you eat to fast.. or to much as one time..or even drink to much at one time you diaphragm will go into as spasm for many reasons but usually as a reaction to the amount your eating or drinking because it feels like your about to choke with the amount you ingested.

It's not bad, just really annoying!

You probably inhale a great deal of air when you eat. Don't worry unless they don't go away. Hiccups won't hurt you.
