Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Hiccups, got ‘em again....

They have returned with a passion. No known cure. I have to endure them for at least 24-36 hours. Tried all the known and some crazy remedies. Don’t work. Drat! MTG

Hot sauce! Find the hottest you can get and
take a healthy dose of it!👍🏻
Not Tabasco but some hot s h I t.

Dang!

How often do these hours long sessions occur?

Boo!

Apple cider vinegar ( watered down)

Geez that sounds brutal and annoying.

I was thinking ghost peppers and ice cold beer. I
could be wrong but worth a shot............of tequila.

Have you seen a doctor? Here's a partial list of things known to cause them. If they continue more than a couple days, you'd do well to see a doctor. Usually they're just a harmless spasm of the diaphragm but sometimes there's a more serious cause behind it.

Some illnesses for which continuing hiccups may be a symptom include: pleurisy of the diaphragm, pneumonia, uremia, alcoholism, disorders of the stomach or esophagus, and bowel diseases. Hiccups may also be associated with pancreatitis, pregnancy, bladder irritation, liver cancer or hepatitis.

Only thing that has worked for me is, take a cup towel and put it over a full glass of water and then drink all the water through the towel. Might be mind over matter, or just the water, but has always worked for me. Disclaimer: I seldom get the hiccups.

Plug your ears and sip water through a straw for as long as you can.... it has never not worked.... old family cure lol.

Tell your wife Doc Dillon prescribed BJ's twice a day.
Once after a week.




Gotta make the best of it!😁

Plugs ears and gulp water (out of a plastic bottle is easier than a glass) at least 4-5 big swallows full with out stopping. Never not worked for me.

I know that there are 100’s of home remedies for hiccups but I had hiccups one day in 2nd grade when my teacher told me to tilt my head back and hold my breath for as long as I could and then slowly let it out. She gently pinched my nose at the distal portion of my nasal bone. It worked perfect and has for 40+ years. My best fishing buddy Bill (RIP) had a big 50th birthday party and after hours of drinking he got the hiccups. He wouldn’t let me do my remedy instead trying 3 or 4 of his to no avai. I figured he’d eventually get pissed off and frustrated and let me try, sure enough after about 45 minutes he dispensed with his waning and fragile pride and with absolutely ZERO faith that it would work allowed me to try. I pinched his nose, tilted his head and he held and released his breath and he was cured….simple and effective. It’s worked on my wife and children too, Bill used it for several years until the cancer took him. None of the other remedies worked as reliably as mine. If it doesn’t work the first time just do it again, it’s sort of a matter of timing and relaxation of the larynx. Hiccups are just a spasm of the larynx so you have to soothe that spasm.

Stick your finger in your ass, then in your mouth, works quickly!

Is that how they do it in Texas?

You Texans think sticking fingers in asses is cure all for everything from pregnancy to monkeypox and now even hiccups…..😂😂

MTGunner: Man I feel for you - that has to be uncomfortable and disruptive for you!
Hope you CAN find a cure (or the cause, then avoid that).
I virtually NEVER get hiccups - I don't know why?
The VarmintWife gets them once every two months or so but they only last 10 to 15 minutes.
Again I hope you can find relief.

Thankfully honey has always worked for me.

Yep
