Cure for hiccups? (28)
Holding your breath for a minute usually works for me. Unless I get them from eating to quickly, then I just drink water and I'm fine.

VinRougeMan08: Everyone raves about Alexander Flemming with his penicillin, or William Mortam and his anesthesia. Couldn’t those two dossers have spent their time trying to find a cure for a REAL problem?
Anyone got any suggestions? My diaphram's going into convulsions here. And no time-wasters, please. I don’t want anyone telling me to stand in the middle of the road, take my trousers down and shout ‘Jeronimo!’. It doesn’t work!

The person without the hickups gives you an open mouth kiss and then slowly fills their own lungs up with air and suddenly and quickly blows all that air into the hickuping person.
It works!! 
I have done it to people I dated or married too, it always worked

I hold my breath with my hand over my diaphragm, then count slowly up to 10 and back down. Sometimes it doesn't work the first time, but the second time always does.
Good luck.

Thorazine cures hiccups. I know from experience. Having had hiccups for a week with no let up, I was given a shot of thorizine and residual pills.

Fill your mouth with water (half a glass or as much as you can), bend over so your head is lower than your waist, hold your breath and drink it up. Works for me on the first try.

CrosstownTraffic: it's all about relaxing your diaphragm which is in spasm! so just sit very still and relax your body, which is the opposite of holding your breath and clenching your guts up........ works for me anyway.
That's what I do all day, no wonder I never have hiccups...

Yes, this really does work - I've done it several times.

For starters you have to understand what hiccups are. Hiccups are one of the ways the body reacts to food stuck in the tube that goes from your mouth to your stomach. It employs what scientists refer to as inertia of rest, that is, a body tends to remain at rest unless acted upon by an outside force. The food is the "body" in this case. By lurching upward the esophagus utilizes the static inirtia of the food to induce it to move in a downward direction into the stomach. If all goes well, once the obstruction is cleared the hiccuping stops, however sometimes the signal to stop hiccuping gets lost or scrambled or the esophagus continues to send a signal to the brain to hiccup possibly due to soreness in the esophagus.
I'm not sure how it works but the application of citric acid on the tongue (lemon or orange juice) will send the required signal to stop the hiccuping.
I've seen this work countless times and the result is usually immediate.
