What's your method to get rid of hiccup?

I drink a cup of water non-stop until i feel a strange feeling that something is pushed down, and I feel better. Thankfully I don't have to drink very much water. this only works with water, no soda or juice. Those two or anyother will hurt going down without stop. also they don't stop the hiccup.

Holdling my breath seems to work for me most of the time.

I don't drink water. I hold my breath for at least 20 seconds.

I used to drink water, hold my breath, do all sorts of home remedy gimmicks, and still took some time for them to stop. Then I read that hiccups is an irritation happening to the diaphragm, the muscle below your lungs and above your abdominal cavity that is the most important muscle in breathing. Now I never hiccup for more than 15 to 30 seconds now. I stop what I'm doing, and pay attention to my breath. I breathe slowly and deliberately, paying full attention to what I'm doing - breathing - and I do nothing and think of nothing else. For me that has always been the fastest way.

I do the same when I have hiccups, drinking water, but sometimes if I happen to be out, where no drinking water is available, I just use a very simple way by pressing the pulse to stop it. It helps as well.

i too think the best way to get rid of hiccups is to have lots of water. but some say that we rid of it when we get a sudden shock, like if some one scares us or something like that. dont no if it works. you can try it out.

I have found two things tend to help..one will if the other does not: Take a glass of water and drink without inhaling air..swallow without inhaling..this is number one..Secondly..is take a spoonful of sugar.

i drink water or i simply let it go away on its own

Hey yl, this topic reminds me of this tv show character from when I was a kid called slim goodbody and the show he did about not trying to stop hiccups-I forgot why I just remember him in that leotard that looked that a person w/ no skin LOL +'s |:)

Wow it took reading all till the one before mine to find someone with my answer. My mom used to put a little bit of sugar on a teaspoon and then cover it with water. It worked every time. My sister used to ask to buy my hiccups for a penny and actually give me a penny and they'd go away. Sometime I can hold my breath and swallow as many times as I can while still holding my breath and that will work.

i would drink water,too... but i would try to hold my breath a short while first. i also heard that if you'd surprise a person, it could help cure his hiccup, too... i havent tried that one....

It happended I got hiccup at 11.Suddenly,dad told me to fetch the flshlight.But i can not find it.so I was back disappointedly.cap the climax,dad took me for the lier.and it is me who concealed the flashlight.Of course,I argued.Then dad laughed.I got no idea but confused.Amazedly,I found that hiccup had been cured. I remeber absolutely.So maybe this method will help. Happy posting.

Have you tried to drink water while covering your ears?? that's my grandma's best secret ;-) tell me if it works for you, it always works for me.

well the last time i had the hiccups i held mt brethe while drinking water and counting to 10. and that stopped my hiccups. an old friend told me that, and i tried it, and it worked, and every time. and you dont have to drink water i tried it with juice and pop, and it still worked.

The best way of getting rid of hippcups and has always worked for me. You need two people to do this. Have someone hold your ears then you drink some water and at the same time hold your nose shut. So your doing all three at once. Try and drink as much as you can. It truely works.LOL

i always drink a lot of water whenever i have a hiccup and for a couple of seconds it will gone:)

Ok here are some of the different ways I use to get rid of hiccups. 1. Hold my breath, plug my ears and nose, and drink some water all at the same time. In order to do this you must take the drink then do the above before swallowing. 2. Stare at the color yellow for a minute or so, you'll notice the hiccups go away. 3. Peanut butter. Almost always works. 4. Have someone scare you. 5. It doesn't work when you ask them to, but if somebody demands you to hiccup on the spot and says something along the lines of "if you can hiccup again, I'll give you a dollar" or something then usually, they will disappear. Hiccups are a pain but there ARE ways of making them go away. :)

The way that alwasy works for me is to drink a gulp of water at the exadt same time a hiccup comes up.

My grandmother have a good way to get rid of hiccup !It is very efficacious for me : be affright by others ! you can try it!

I drink one cup of water in one go and it normally works for me.
