Today, I have three cracked ribs. I have also, for the first time in my life, developed a case of the hiccups that simply will NOT go away. It's been hours. FML

Have someone show you the medical bills, that should scare you.

Stand on your head. Jump up and down. Burp. Drink Ginger Ale. Hold your breath. Get scared. Drink water. Juggle. Yell. Breathe through your mouth. ...and by the time you've read through all of these stupid, inane remedies, you would've forgotten to hiccup. You're welcome.

I love all the hiccup remedies!

If you hold your breath for 30 seconds it can help get rid of your hiccups works for me every time.

There is a new invention that a girl developed. It's a hiccup stopping lollipop.

Once a man had the hiccups for like 69 years good luck hahahah

The point of taking a spoonful of sugar is that it redirects how you think. Just like being scared. Or drinking water through a paper towel. The less you think about the hiccups, the faster they go away. I always take one to two packets of sugar and dump them under my tongue. By the time they've dissolved, my hiccups have gone away. But make sure you're doing something else at the same time. Watching TV, playing a game, talking on the phone (dumb as that sounds). Two things at once will allow your diaphragm to stop contracting. Good luck, OP!

its because you cracked your ribs your breathing is all messed up. irregular breathing is what causes hiccups

89- Yeah, Id always eat a spoonful of peanut butter slowly. Its always worked for me as well.
