The funniest advice I heard about it and it actually worked is when my friend said
"I pay you a dollar if you hiccup again!"
See if that works.

Quick Hiccup Cure
2016-10-13 22:13:20 · answer #2 · answered by Anonymous · 0⤊ 0⤋
I had a bad case of hiccups at work once and my boss told me to drink water out of a china cup upside down with my fingers in my ears. He held the cup and I felt really silly but it worked! I use that cure all the time for my kids and it has NEVER failed.

Fool your body into thinking it is drowning! Plug your nose and drink a glass of water at the same time until you are practically going to pass out. (Make sure you don't pass out!) This is a very scary feeling for the body to endure, and most of the time ALWAYS cures your hiccups.

I actually heard of this one on the radio driving to work one day about 20 years ago:
Using your thumb, press hard at the top of your stomach just below the breast bone for about 15-20 seconds.
I've been doing it for 20+ years and it works like a charm every single time!
Good Luck!

Drink water upside down. Like, take a sip of water and then try to turn your head as upside down as possible before you swallow. Repeat 2-5 times, as necessary.

Drink a glass water very slowly upside down without taking a breath. (Drink out of the opposite side of the glass). You can do it right side up too If you don't want to look silly.

This may sound silly, but believe me It really works. And instantly!! Get a glass of water. bend over, and drink it upside down!! Its freakin amaizing!!!!!! ( be sure to hold the glass upright though,Cuz you'll get H2O up your nose.) Trust it really works.

hold your breath and swallow three times then let the breath go and see if that works. (you might need to hold your nose at the same time so you don't breathe through it when trying it.)
