Hold your breath
The hiccup cycle can be interrupted by holding your breath for a short time. Taking a deep breath and holding your breath as long as you feel comfortable can regulate the diaphragm muscles and stop the spasms that cause hiccups. Care should be taken with the length of time you hold your breath and any necessary precautions to minimize discomfort.
Press gently on the diaphragm
You can achieve relief by gently pressing on the diaphragm. By leaning forward and pressing lightly on the upper abdomen, just below the rib cage, the diaphragm muscles can relax, thus stopping the hiccups. This position should be held for several seconds and repeated as necessary until the hiccups stop.
As a reminder, UAportal has prepared a list of tips and tricks that will help you get rid of hiccups quickly and easily.
