Yikes! Heartburn! (home remedies master thread)

All of these problems can be cured (except puni's that's effing cool duct tape what can't it fix?) by not being a fp.

if you ever get a plantar wart on your foot from the disgusting locker room floor () you can fix it by putting duct tape on it for basically forever.

I'm not sure if the true medicine was the duct tape or my immune system but it is totally healed now and i only ruined like 12 pairs of socks with duct tape goop.

I can confirm that this works. It takes a very long time, though. Warts are disgusting.

Ginger is also good for sea sickness.

I would just like to see you try to find a way to cure dehydration without water. Just try.

Also, before CK dropped 7 TD's on WVU, it's rumored he enjoyed a nice gingerale.

I really think you might be on to something with this water stuff, NK.

If you have a sore throat, you can gargle warm salt water and then you will feel much better. I like to eat a Popsicle after I'm through with the salt water to get rid of the nasty flavor, but it isn't really necessary I guess.

A nice remedy for the hiccups is to take a sip of vinegar. Pickle juice doesn't work as well, but it will usually do the trick and it isn't as disgusting as vinegar.

This sounds like you're pranking us. I'm going to need on the ground confirmation of this before I go vinegar guzzling next time I hiccup.

If you have an itchy bug bite, you can burn it off. A painful burn is sometimes preferable to an itchy bite, but not always.

Is this part 2 of Nuts Kicked prank parade?

I have an ex whose grandma recommended vinegar as a home rememdy for numerous ailments including the ones mentioned above.

Spoiler alert, vinegar doesn't do crap for anything.  I think the point of splashing vinegar on yourself is to make people avoid the stench while your body naturally recovers from whatever.

Vinegar really does help with the hiccups. I use it all the time. You have to swallow it, though. Splashing it on yourself does absolutely nothing.

does vinegar do bad stuff to your insides?  i like the taste of a sip of it (white & red wine, not really the apple cider stuff)

Lol yeah, guess I should have typed splashing or ingesting.........

I imagine just chugging a whole lot of it wouldn't be very good for you, but I don't think a sip or two every now and then would have any significant effect.

Well, I have attempted curing the hiccups with vinegar (pickle juice if available) about 50 times now and have been successful 49 times. Every time it has worked, relief has been immediate without a single hiccup following. The one time it didn't work, the hiccups were much worse than they were before drinking the vinegar, though.

[Rage Against the McKee]

ALWAYS make sure that you pour your own vinegar, though. Better safe than sorry.

Oh congrats, Nuts Kicked.  I have tried both vinegar and pickle juice for hiccups and neither one works for me.  Just have to suffer through them

Damn, that sucks. I have a friend who cures them by eating a spoonful of Nestle chocolate milk chowder (dry). You might give that a try the next time you get them and let us know if that works.

Does it make your clothes stink?

[Emo EMAW]

You're supposed to run a vinegar solution through those front-load washers every once in a while to keep them from stinking.
