HICCUPS

HICCUP

Hiccup is a split-second event that occurs as a result of the involuntary spasm of the diaphragm and the closure of the glottis at that moment. The occurrence of hiccups may be related to the digestive system, but it may also be due to many diseases such as thoracic diseases, heart diseases and neurological reasons. Psychoneurotic hiccups are more common in young women and do not occur during sleep. Acupuncture provides treatment by acting on the Nervus Vagus nerve.
