I'd say something funny here, but that would make you hurt more, so I won't. Sammiches . . . oops, I can't help it.

You wuss cracked ribs only hurt when: Laugh Cough Breath Stand up Sit down Lay down Move Hiccups There is something they don't have on C.O.D the joy of a cracked sternum after getting promoted.

I had hiccups for 3 days once. There's nothing doctors can do, they gave me a saline drip, which did nothing. I just had to wait it out.

A spoonful of sugar literally helps me.

I had hiccups for 3 days once. Went to the doctor and they tried a drip which didn't work, and then told me to wait it out. Just try to relax and not focus on it- it'll pass eventually

My grandad once hiccuped for a week- went to hospital and got electric shock treatment and it stopped. An hour later on the bus ride home it started again.. Finally stopped a few days later but he barely slept or ate anything the whole time and got sent home from work. Strange how something most people don't even think about can case such a problem! But I'm sure you will be fine- count yourself lucky it's only a few hours!!

Hiccups are actually your diaphragm contracting.

Go to the ER and request an ER doc who knows what the **** he's doing (I'll warn you: THEY ARE RARE), and request some Thorazine. Yes, Thorazine, the anti-psychotic medicine. If you don't believe me, look it up. Thorazine is fairly effective for refractory hiccoughs.

Lean your head back and swallow 3 times, realigns your esophagus..

Down a teaspoon of sugar (REAL sugar, none of that artificial sweetener shit), hold breath for 10 seconds. Done.
