Cure for hiccups?

Question

any fast ways to cure hiccups?

Answer 1

I learned this in the third grade (about 40 years ago) and it still works for me.

Hold your hands, in fists, out in front of you.  Tilt them so that the pinkies are at the top and are facing each other.  Now, concentrate very hard, trying to get the two pinkies as close together as possible without letting them touch.  Keep trying to get them a tiny bit closer, and closer again, but don't let them touch.

In about 2 minutes, you should be hiccup free.

Weird, but effective.

Answer 2

Eat a little of plain white sugar.

Answer 3

Press gently with 2 fingers on the area right above your eyebrows. It stimulates the Vegas nerve (that's probably the wrong spelling). I saw it on an episode of Trauma: Life in the ER on Discovery Health.
