How do you stop the hiccups? How about the ones with uncontrollable burping? And the ones that hurt?

Answer 1

The winner of the 2006 ignoble award for medicine, won because they had a cure for hiccups - Digital Rectal Massage. In layman's terms, that's a finger up your butt!

While this is supposed to cure hiccups, you might want to try the other suggestions first - or decide that hiccups aint such a bad thing after all!!!

Answer 2

Tell someone to scare you. Honestly, worked for my family.
Used to just sneak up on someone and yell, they'd jump and
about 80% of the time, hiccups went bye-bye.

Of course, make sure nobody has a heart condition or anything.

Peace

Answer 3

hiccups most commonly happen because the diaphragm, the muscle with which you breathe, is irritated. The best way I know to stop them is to sit quietly and concentrate on breathing slowing and relaxing the diaphragm. Prevent hiccups by eating and drinking slowly.
