Forums · how to get rid of hicups
[quote]Hiccups are sudden, involuntary contractions of the diaphragm muscle. As the muscle contracts repeatedly, the opening between your vocal cords snaps shut to check the inflow of air and makes the hiccup sound. Irritation of the nerves that extend from the neck to the chest can cause hiccups.[/quote]

Some of the cures I've used that work are:
Hyperventilating
Cough and continue to blow until your lungs are empty.
Inhale and exhale once a second for two minutes. (faster the better)
