    Si, I just had a dose of the hiccups, tried all the usual remedies, the only thing that worked was: holding my breath for as long as I could and tightening all the muscles in my upper body... watching this....

    Drink a glass of water upside down, under water, while saying the alphabet backwards.


    Or if that's too much hassle I just hold my breath for as long as I can.

    Take a deep breath and hold it for 20 - 30 seconds. Never failed for me in the past

    Several sudden sharp breaths.

    /tap of a mallet on the back of the head usually is a very effective cure,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,153 ✭✭✭Rented Mule


    You'll need the assistance of someone else with this one.

    Get someone to cover both of your ears. Make sure they have a good seal on your ears.

    Chug a pint of water without stopping.

    Works every time.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,273 ✭✭✭Morlar


    If anal is not your thing try pressing your nostrils shut with your little fingers, block your ears with your thumbs and blow hard for about 20 seconds.

    Sit upside on a couch and have a mate pour water into your mouth cures them everytime

    There's a man in Tipperary who once told me a good one for hiccups.

    Stand flat up against a wall. Begin to inhale. As your inhalation progresses, raise your arms up by your sides. Keep inhaling, slowly, until your arms are well over your head. When you think you cannot inhale anymore, inhale once more. Then do it again.

    Now slowly exhale, careful not to rush, and as you do, lower your hands slowly, slowly down to your sides. All the while remaining completely still. Exhale so deeply that you think you cannot exhale any more. Then exhale some more. Then exhale some more again.

    Now you've had enough, and your hiccups are gone.

    This has never not worked for me.

    .

    If the hiccups go, was it because of your cure or mine?

    Gunshot to the head does the trick for anyone who has ever asked for my help in getting rid of them. Never tried it myself though.
