The diaphragm becomes irritated and pulls down forcefully, which makes you suck air into your throat suddenly, making a hiccup.
Hiccups are a result of irregular movement by the diaphragm, the muscle that helps you expand and contract your lungs.
Hiccups are an involuntary contraction of the diaphragm and can be caused by spicy food, carbonated drinks and other triggers.
