Hiccups occur when a contraction contracts the diaphragm, a large sheet of muscle that separates the chest cavity from the abdominal cavity. Hiccups can be stopped by increasing the level of carbon dioxide in the blood. Holding your breath and counting slowly to 10. Breathing repeatedly into a paper bag for a limited period of time. Quickly drinking a glass of cold water. Eating a teaspoon of sugar or honey. If these fail,your doctor may conduct tests to rule out a more serious problem. Dr. M.T.N
