The NY Post says baseball and football legend Bo Jackson recently shocked people by joking that he smelled a porcupine’s rear-end to cure himself of the hiccups. He said, “I have done everything — scare me, drink water upside down, smell the *** of a porcupine, it doesn’t work!”
Bo has had the hiccups since last July and has attempted dozens of home remedies. He will be undergoing a medical procedure this week in an attempt to be cured for good.
Here are some of YOUR suggestions:
Take a chunk of lemon, put bitters on it then shove it in the mouth of the person with hiccups!
When I get hiccups from drinking I’ll drink upside down several drinks and usually helps
Swallow the hiccup
The sugar works for me. Every time I get the hiccups, I take a teaspoon of sugar or a packet of sugar and they are gone. Have a great day.
I have to fill a glass of water and put a straw in it, then plug my ears and drink the glass of water. Cures them all the time.
A spoon-full of peanut butter gets rid of my hiccups every time
Take a drink of water hold it in your mouth put your head upside down and swallow
Drink a glass of milk upside down and when I say upside down, I mean, just bend over
What always works for me is I take a deep breath, plug my nose and swallow 10 times. If I have access to something to drink I’ll do the same thing but take 10 big gulps with my nose plugged. Hiccups go away every time.
One thing I’ve tried to get rid of hiccups, and it actually does work is eat a packet of sugar
Hiccup remedy. Take a drink of water but do not swallow. Turn upside down, head between your legs. Then swallow the water. Works every time!
