Squeezing a can very hard for a few seconds does seem to help, but the most effective is to leave it alone for 5 minutes in a very cold area.
A difference of only 2 degrees can cause a difference in the foaminess of a beer as well.

Totally unrelated but I used to brew beer in the 1980s before anybody was doing it and my beers were about 15% ABV
and a lot of them would have heads that were darker than Guinness and many times I get a little bit of contamination in my beers and you would open one of them it would turn into a giant fountain !!!!
and that would just go on and on and on and on and on
and every once in a while in the middle of the night out here boom !!! as my bottles would blow up !
Mostly everything would work out real fine now and my buddies would constantly break into my room and steal my beers
anyway thats my little story

So, beer contains artificially induced CO2. Now will activists demand the federal government ban beer for its contribution to climate change?
Its fun to laugh at snowflakes, even if it isnt pertinent to the article.

tapping the top will help with a COLD beer that got dropped but it has to be very cold.

Yes, CO2 is more soluble in cold beer than warm.

As CO2 dissolves in water, it forms carbonic acid. That would lower the pH of the beer, giving it a somewhat sour taste. Not a desirable trait I would think.

If you drop a beer, just put it back in the cooler.
Low temps aid CO2 absorption and the beer will be ready in 10 mins.
