Tonsil Stones

[Anonymous]

I recommend that you get one of these to remove your tonsil stones. It is a tiny stick with a flashlight:

Just fell down a Reddit rabbit hole about tonsil stones. For PPs that had tonsil stones, how did you know you had them? Can you see them or feel them?

i am going to the ENT to get mine dealt with tom. does anyone know what they will do?

How did you pull back the flap without gaging op? I can see a huge one back there but can't set passed there without eyes watering and gagging.

i dont get how ppl are doing this themselves. i would gag so much and also fear infection.

I only get them after a bad cold. I imagine they're trapping the sickness so i can recover

Should people with nail fungus cut off their toes? Tonsils are an important part of your immune system. You should keep them if you can.

Also, this is a major surgery as an adult. It's much riskier than when you're a kid.

+1000 read the horror stories online about the throat scabs as well.

Yes they're way worse when sick. I check pretty much every day and remove any along with gargling. My 6 year old tells me if my breath is ok (or not) so I can feel confident since he's painfully honest!

A clear symptom is horrible breath that smells like horse shit. You can smell it on people who are several feet away from you. I basically tell people "Wow, your breath smells like you have tonsil stones."

Not true for everyone though bc my spouse has them and their breath isn't bad.

I just got a ad pop-up on my screen for the tonsil pick with the flashlight. Thanks DCUM.

That’s not super helpful, everybody has bad breath sometimes. What are other signs?

Last ENT I visited claimed tonsil stones are a product of silent reflux, inflaming the tissue and leading to extra phlegm. Treat the reflux, stones will go away. I do get more when I'm congested. And I do have some stomach troubles. This guy was well past retirement age and was adamant that it's a stomach problem, not a tonsil problem.
