hiccup
Commonly known as a "hiccup". The technical term is "singultus".
Hiccups are spasms of the diaphragm (which is the muscle between the chest and the abdomen that pumps up and down to get air in and out of your lungs).It's a spasm in the diaphragm.A hiccup is the spasm of the diaphragm that causes you to intake air and then abruptly stop.
If your doctor diagnoses you with singultus, it means you are experiencing hiccups. This condition occurs when the diaphragm involuntarily contracts, leading to a sudden intake of breath that is abruptly stopped by the closure of the vocal cords, producing the characteristic "hic" sound. While often harmless and temporary, persistent hiccups can sometimes indicate an underlying medical issue.
