Sometimes hiccups will occur because of a disturbance to the nerve pathways from the brain to the muscles involved. This explains why hiccups may occur with temperature changes or emotional situations. It is also the reason that a sudden shock can sometimes abolish an attack.

Hiccups are bursts of inspiratory (breathing in) activity.
Most simple cases of hiccups come after eating or drinking too much or too quickly.
The stomach, which is situated right below the diaphragm, becomes distended and irritates it.
This will cause the diaphragm to contract, as it does when we breathe in.
And then, it leads to hiccups.
