Question
What causes a child’s hiccup and stomach shaking?
Answer
The situation you described requires further medical examination to determine the cause. The child only has stomach tremors without any hiccup sounds from the throat or mouth, which may not be a typical hiccup reaction. If this occurs when the child is sitting quietly, a comprehensive medical evaluation, including an EEG, may be necessary. Parents should not self-medicate at home but should allow a doctor to conduct a professional assessment and examination. If there is concern or doubt, it should be considered to go to the hospital for a detailed check-up.
