Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. Constant hiccups is due to diaphragmatic irritation.
2. Eating sweet or sour at times of hiccup could help.
3. Deep breathing exercises or pea nut butter is also known to help.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
