I get the hiccups every single day. What's with that?

Seriously. Every Day. It's usually just five or six hiccups and then they go away, at least until the next time. Sometimes they hurt. What's the science behind this, and has anyone else experienced such a thing?

    Do you usually lay down after you eat? That may be the reason you get them. Hiccups are caused by poor digestion; therefore it must happen after you eat-but most of the time, you randomly get them! After you eat, try to sit down for about 2-3 minutes or so. This may calm your nerves and help prevent hiccups. Hope this helps!

    P.S. If this gets too bad and bothers you a lot, then you should contact a doctor :]
