How to get Rid of Hiccups?

  • How to get Rid of Hiccups? Don't tell me that eat a table spoon of sugar and drink water. I am telling this because I know these ways to get rid of hiccups. I tried eating a table-spoon of sugar and I even tried drinking water. Can you tell me other ways to get rid of hiccups?+

  • Answer:

    Hiccups are causes by your diaphragm being in spasm. So my theory is try to get the diaphragm out of spasm by tweaking it. Breathe in deeply and expand your chest and push out your stomach muscles. Hold it for as long as you can, and then repeat. It does work most of the time.

I think holding your breath is the best way also. Also you might try answering this question: when is the last time you saw a pure white horse? The purpose of this is to divert your mind from thinking about the hiccups; any unusual question would do.

You ask the person what they did yesterday at say 11am, then ask them what they had for lunch, basically you ask them Questions that make them think for a while. It takes their mind off the hiccups and they go away. Try it.....it works

Hold your breath. Or have someone startle you.

ok...drink 3 sips of water...but not all at one go..drink one sip and then stop for a few secs and drink again and then stop and then drink once more. It has always worked for me.

Hold your breath until you pass out, that should do it. Good Luck.
