sounds ridiculous and only works sometimes for me but its worth giving a bash. Try to bite your elbow, i know its not possible and its April 1st lol but if you sit up straight and try to bite your elbow it stretches you enough to put the diaphragm back the right way. hope it work, but if it doesn't and there's people near by at least you'll give someone a laugh :)
BOO
Message me when you do your next hiccup
but time someone gives you something good to try for it they probs would have gone :)
in the daily mail today it says to:
get a glass of water and a straw.....suck through the straw, at the same time putting your fingers in your ears and finish the glass of water...by the time you get to the end of the glass...your hicups will be gone......supposidly....but then it is April 1st today.....
Really? One thing I do, if someone else has them, I always ask what colour underwear they are wearing. If you have never said it to that person before they should get a shock and it sort of confuses them and they forget about it. I don't know why, it works sometimes, but I think you just need to ask them something embarrassing. But to get rid of them yourself, I have no idea sorry. Take your mind off it. Preoccupy yourself or get someone to spontaneously ask you something embarrassing.
Hope this helps #)
deep breath
Drink a glass of water realllllly slowly without letting air in. That works for me.
swallow three times while holding your breath. works like a charm!
Take a mouthful of water, block your ears and pinch your nose at the same time (you can do this by using your thumbs to block your ears and two fingers for the nose), then swallow all the water in one gulp. Two gulps can work sometimes if you can't manage it all at once.
I don't know if this will work for you but it works for me. Lay flat so your stomach is down on the bed with half your body hanging over and stay ther for about 30 seconds. Hopefully this will help you :)
drink water and relax it will gradually stop.
Making yourself sick is a bit drastic, are the hiccups that bad?
Everyone gets them from time to time and they go of their own accord.
If you are having them often or for hours at a time go see your GP because that would not be normal and some gastric problems can cause prolonged hiccups.
Go to the doctor
Although there's no surefire way to stop hiccups, if you have a bout of hiccups that lasts longer than a few minutes, the following home remedies may provide relief:
Swallow a teaspoon of sugar
Breathe temporarily into a paper bag
Drink a glass of cold water
Hold your breath for a count of 10
Have someone startle you
get someone to give you a scare. BOO
