Hiccups
A quick involuntary inhalation that follows a spasm of the diaphragm AND it's suddently checked by closure of the glottis, producing a short, relatively sharp sound.
Tips are:-
1. Drink a glass of water quickly. It forces your abdomen muscles to contract which stops hiccups.
2. Gargle with water for 20 seconds stop then repeat until hiccups relieves. The psychology behind is that you are concentrating on something else and it's helps to relax your diaphram and vocal cord.
3. Place half table spoon of dry sugar on the back of your tongue.Its irritate the esophagus, causing the phrenic nerves to 'reset' themselves although there is no proof.
4. Breath slowly and deeply into a small papper bag (stop if you feel light- headed).It's increases the cabondioxide level in the blood and makes the diaphram contract,deeply to bring in more oxygen, which may stop the hiccups spasams.
5. Place a single layer of paper towel over tips of the glass then drink through the towel. You will have to 'pull' harder with your diaphram to suck up the water, and conentrated gulping counteracts spasmodic muscle movements of hiccups.
