I have had the hiccups for the last 24 hours on and off! What do I do? I am recovering from strep throat. Could that be the reason?

    People have been known to die from extended hiccups, so I'd suggest a visit to your doctor if they don't stop soon.

    Maybe is that you have chronic hiccups, you should visit the doctor, so many people has the hiccups for like months and years, and that's horrible, I imagine that. It has to hurt so much.

    Hold your breath; it's caused by the spasming of the diaphragm.
