Question

I'm curious about something that's been happening to me for a while now. Whenever I rub the same spot on both sides of my chin, I get the hiccups. It's always been like this, but I've never really worried about it until now. Is this something normal, or should I be concerned?

You can try taking over-the-counter antacids like Tums or Maalox to help alleviate the hiccups. If the hiccups persist, you can also try medications like chlorpromazine or metoclopramide under the guidance of a healthcare provider.
