Know the asteroid wellhead tonsil stones them for many years and it's been title not eventually.
Best decision I've ever made! I was shocked by the way of getting out the stones out. It was so easy, but more importantly, painless. I really liked the little trick he had for preventing gag reflex. He have one happy customer here.

your tonsil might have a hole in it where food gets caught, push on the side of your tonsil with a qtip to try squeezing it out. I got alot of sore throats when as a child and eventually had to get my tonsils removed because they had so many holes in them.
Other than that it could be an infection, but if it was it most likely would hurt.

I have those too. Your tonsils have pockets that collect solid matter, like dead skin cells. It's called "Crypted tonsils". When you do work one of those things out they stink! It's very difficult to get them out because it hurts, and you gag. Doctors and parents will probably get angry with my suggestion, but I found the best thing to use is a large paperclip. Unfold it so it looks like an S and use one of the curved ends, not the pointed ends, to scrape from the bottom up. Then I do the same motion with the back of my tongue and repeat until it's loose, and then make myself cough to get it out as quickly as possible. There is no real reason to get rid of them, they aren't a health hazard. They are just annoying.

Is your throat sore? Usually white spots are a sign of infection and you need an antibiotic to get rid of it.

Umm... you can't.
If you're worried about them or you have pain, see your doctor. It could just be Thrush or signs of a viral or bacterial infection. Have you been under stress? Do you have allergies or a cold?Try a health website.

Ah you just reminded me of the old days! :)
You are probably sick with Strep, see your Doctor for a Throat Culture.

go to a doctor!! he can remove it easily, i had this happen, i freaked! i thought i had cancer or something! my dr. removed it, it was quite deep which is why i recommend the dr. instead of doing it yourself, and you may need to be put on antibiotics.
