According to traditional Chinese medicine, hiccups are caused by the upward flow of stomach qi. In traditional Chinese medicine, the liver is responsible for relaxation and release. Bad mood has a lot to do with the liver, because anger hurts the liver. In addition, bad mood hurts the liver, causing liver qi stagnation and then affecting the stomach, causing hiccups. In traditional Chinese medicine, people are a whole, and people, nature, and emotions are closely related.

Generally, the increase in direct bilirubin and total bilirubin may be a manifestation of hemolytic jaundice. The treatment of this disease must clear away heat, detoxify, promote dampness and reduce jaundice. The increase in bilirubin may be caused by favism or other reasons. Active treatment is required, otherwise it may damage the liver function.
