Why does he always get hiccups!?

My partner has started to suffer with hiccups a lot, in fact he gets them whenever he eats lately, I'm constantly nagging him to go to the docs but he won't get around to it unless I drag him there myself, what could be the cause of this? I'm worried.

    It could be a result of acid reflux or something like it....

    He's eating too fast and that way swallows a lot of wind, that can't come up too easily, since he gets hiccups. Tell him to eat like a normal person and he'll probably get better soon.

    Reminds me of the guy who suffered from hiccups for 68 years ;)

    Tell him to stop eating so fast! It causes everybody to get hiccups if they eat too fast.

    When he gets them say you're leaving him, they always say scaring people gets rid of hiccups ;)

    hiccups are your bodies way of reacting against something it doesnt like. im allways the same with spicy food i just moderate what spicy food i eat.
