Medical Tips For Hiccups

Try one teaspoon of Sugar swallowed dry. The sugar acts on nervous impulses that cause the diaphragm to spasm & relaxes them. My favorite that has never let me down is taking a bag & re-breathing the air for a few minutes while taking a fresh breath when the carbon dioxide builds up to much. But this only works well if you catch the hiccups when they first start. (remember not to let a child see you do this without explaining to them what your doing & never use or leave a plastic bag lying around). Actually their are hundreds of cures & here are a few. Yank forcefully on the tongue, Lift the uvula with a spoon, Tickle the roof of your mouth with a cotton swab where the hard & soft palate meet, Chew & swallow dry bread, Suck a Lemon soaked with Angostura bitters, Hold your breath, Suck on crushed ice. I think that's enough for now. the list goes on & on , good luck & God Bless
