It just poped up on my mind about this when i started having hick-ups on me this morning. I was thinking.. what are the solutions to cure hick-ups?
I have compile a few solutions:
1. Drink water
2. Sip water 8 times.
3. frighten the person who is having hick-ups
4. Hold your breath as long as you can.
What are the other solutions? why do we follow this solutions?
keeps.. wondering...

apparently taking in vinegar and honey helps too. but i often use breathing method. hahaha.
*basically hiccups are caused by involuntary contractions of the diaphragm. Hiccups can start when gas in the stomach presses upward against the diaphragm.
So hiccups are a reflex action of the body trying to get food or gas out of the stomach, thereby irritating the diaphragm. This in turn, affects the passage of air in and out of the lungs.
Culprits are likely to be breathing in too much air at once, rapid swallowing, alcohol, or stress.*
probably the remedies are to alter the breathing tempo.

Hope this may clear some of your doubts :)
