How Do I Get Rid Of Hicups?

Question

i have had them for an hour and want to know how you get rid of them.

Answer 1

I have heard a good scare will cure hiccups.

Are you my real father?


If so, you owe a lot of back child support.






Scared?

Answer 2

Have a teaspoon of vinegar. Vinegar is acetic acid and it suppresses the spasm of the diaphragm which is the cause of hiccups. The common solution is to dissolve a teaspoon of sugar on the tongue slowly. Sugar is converted into acid within 10-20mins. It works but the vinegar( any type) works within seconds. Prolonged bouts of hiccups should be medically examined to rule out any underlying conditions.

Answer 3

it's unnatural to have a hiccup for a full hour. Go to a doctor. If you're exaggerating, then hold your breath for 30 seconds.

Answer 4

I take a real deep breath and then force a few more mouthfuls of air into my lungs. That makes it so you can't hiccup. I hold it as long as I can then let it out quickly and do it a few more times. That takes care of it.

Answer 5

Drink 9 small sips of water.

Answer 6

alot of hicups are a form of indigestion, (why they are comon after eating) try some pepto or mylanta, or any other antacid.

Answer 7
