Appendix: 1. The hiccups mentioned in this article are actually "hiccups", which refer to quick and short burps in the throat but without any gas discharge. Do not confuse them with "belching", which is a burp with gas discharge. 2. Hiccup is a common physiological phenomenon, which is caused by the spasm and contraction of the diaphragm. It is governed by a reflex arc called "hiccup reflex arc". Under normal circumstances, this reflex arc is silent, but when eating too fast, too full, too hot or too cold, the reflex arc switch may be suddenly activated, causing hiccups. 3. Hiccups are usually a one-time phenomenon, and you don’t know when they occur or when they end. If hiccups occur frequently or last for more than 24 hours, they are called “refractory hiccups”, which often occur in certain diseases. 4. The most embarrassing thing is that you can't stop "hiccup, hiccup, hiccup". Drinking water can balance the upper and lower pressures of the diaphragm and restore the diaphragm to its normal working process. You may want to give it a try. In addition, the hiccup stopping method of frightening, swallowing, and holding breath are also widely circulated among the people. The most bizarre hiccup stopping method that even won the "Ig Nobel Prize in Medicine" is the "rectal massage to stop hiccups" jointly invented by two foreign doctors. I'm really curious about how they came up with it. Finally, if you have any tricks to stop hiccups, please share them in the comments section~ |
