THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO GET OUR PRICES BEFORE YOU BUY There is nothing more than coinci- dence in the selection of “hiccoughs,” at this festive season, as the subject for consideration. Hiccoughs are not serious in themselVes but they may be most annoying. Acting as a partition between the chest and the abdominal cavities is a particularly strong muscle, the dia- phragm. Through its action, the chest cavity is enlarged or contracted chest cavity is enlarged or COIlbl‘aE'Lcu‘ and‘ thus the diaphragm plays an im-i portant part in breathing. ; The nerve which supplies the dia- phragm, and which controls its move- ments, comes from the upper part of the spinal cord in the region of the neck. A hiccough is really a spasm of the diaphragm caused by some ir- ritation to its nerve supply. An over-dilated stomach is often responsible. This condition is seen typically in the overfed baby whose hiccoughs are relieved when, having been placed over the shoulder of his mother or his nurse and his back patted, he brings up air or milk, re- lieving the pressure and curing the hiccoughs at the same time. In later life, those who overeat or who eat too quickly may suffer in the same Way, but relief is not so easily obtained. An irritated stomach may show its irritation in hiccoughs. Stomachs may be irritated by certain foods or by undue amounts of alcohol. Fur- thermore, the liver and the gall- bladder are not far away, and if these l Phone 78 Hiccoughs may be a symptom of some disease, causing an irritation of the brain centre which controls the action of the diaphragm, or again pressure; may be exerted on this centre by some change in the brain. Here, as in all other abnormal con- ditions, treatment should be directed at the underlying cause. Sometimes a slap on the back, holding the breath, taking a sip of water or suck- lug ice will suffice. If the cause lies in an overloaded stbmach, then an emetic will usually bring all the dis- comfort to an end. organs are upset or diseased, there may be such indirect irritation to the diaphragm as to cause spasms or hiccough. I When hiccoughs persist after the usual remedies are tried, it is ad- visable to secure medical care as they may be a symptom of some condition which should not be neglected. Those who suffer from repeated attacks are advised to slow down in their eating, or to avoid highly spiced foods or the excessive use of any particular food or beverage as both are apt to be irritating when used to excess. Kings of the east and' wise men three there were I Who brought to him rare frankincense and myrrh.
