Hiccups can have causes that aren't due to underlying disease. Examples include drinking too fast, eating too fast, carbonated beverages, alcohol, smoking or chewing gum. Some illnesses for which continuing hiccups may be a symptom include pleurisy of the diaphragm, pneumonia, uremia, alcoholism, disorders of the stomach or esophagus, and bowel diseases. Hiccups may also be associated with pancreatitis, pregnancy, bladder irritation, liver cancer or hepatitis. A cause of long-term hiccups is damage to or irritation of the vagus nerves or phrenic nerves, which serve the diaphragm muscle. Factors that may cause damage or irritation to these nerves include: a hair or something else in your ear touching your eardrum. A tumor, cyst or goiter in your neck.
