The best thing to do is to take yourself out of the room you are working in and find somewhere quiet, like the toilet, and do some meditation on your breathing. Just a couple of minutes of deep breathing will help you to calm down. Another thing to do is to put cold water on your lips and back of your neck - this usually calms you down.
Just give yourself a few minutes away from the work so that you can get yourself back down calm and can then return to your desk and work again. Nobody else will notice if you go to the toilet so no need to worry about people noticing. I often pretend I am delivering something to someone in another department, and then if I take quite a while in the toilet to calm down, when I go back I just say I met someone who wanted to tell me something.
