Tonsil Stones?

Question

I have been getting these since i was 5 years old, and today was reading online, after i had sneezed up two of them that led my throat to bleed. Im really freaked out, because i can still see some of them in my tonsils. I read that there caused by reacurances of tonsilitus, but to my knowledge have never had it. Anybody else ever have them?

i am 18 now too, and it is really annoying, they went away while i was pregnant, so i dont know why they came back all the sudden

Answer 1

Had them. The problem got bad at 17 years old. I had flare ups 2-3 times per year with a chronic sore throat. I had chronic ear infections.
This past Christmas at age 24 I got them removed and it is the best decison I have ever made. I have not had one sore throat since. I feel so much more healthy.
I even had to get mucous drained from my ear during my tonsillectomy.
It hurts, but if your pain tolerance is decent, it is not as bad as what people say.

Answer 2

I used to get the stones. I had gotten tonsillitis a number of times. Try gargling with warm salt water as often as every hour for a few days or until your throat is feeling better. I used to press my finger on my tonsil to dislodge the stones. The stones do go away at some point. Mine were gone when I was 18 or 19.

Answer 3

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.

Cure Tonsil Stones Permanently?

Answer 4

Tonsil caves (cryptic tonsils)are caused by accumulated pus that left them. That whitish stuff you see in those caves is food debris, and can be dislodged by gargling with a mixture of warm water and oxygenated water (2:1).
I recommend you go to an ear-nose specialist and check to see if you don't have beta hemolytic strep in your system and see if you are a candidate for extraction (tonsillectomy).

Answer 5

HELLO,

SINCE YOU HAVE SEEN THESE IT MEANS THAT YOUR TONSILS ARE PROPERLY FUNCTINING AND DOING THEIR JOB.
THESE SMALL, SMELLY STONES ARE BACTERIA AND LYMPHATIC CELLS WHICH NOW AND THEN COME OUT FROM THE CRYPS OR HOLES OF THE TONSILS.
