Today, I tripped and fell, damaging my sternum and making it incredibly painful to breathe in or out too much. About ten minutes later, I got the hiccups. FML

Damaging? Sounds like a doctors visit is in order. Ever heard of a cracked diaphragm? Yeah I can only imagine the pain you're feeling.

How do you fall and land on your sternum?

I know that feel all too well. Make sure you let it heal properly and dont put a lot of pressure on it or itll get sooo much worse

Pull down hard on your right earlobe while holding your breath. Sounds stupid but it works!

Ouch that sucks...try having open heart surgery then having the hiccups lol it's about 20x worse

In 1975 my dad got into an accident where he broke all of his ribs and both of his collarbones. They gave him Dilaudid, turns out he was allergic and it have him the hiccups. He had the hiccups for six hours. When the nurse came back to give him the next dose, he told her if she came any closer he was going to get out of the bed and kick her ass.

No freakin way! I broke my sternum in a motorcycle accident and the same DARN THING happened to me... Six times
