I’m just wondering cuz i get them quite frequently. I’m one of those people compelled to get them out of my throat which ends up with me gagging. Does stress play a role? I used to get them about once a week. But the past three weeks (school started and im working full time ahhh) i have been getting like 2 or more a day. So what could it be!!! I dont know if age plays into it but im 16. Oh and is it genetic cuz my mom also gets them.Thanks for anyone that answers!

Tonsil stones, (tonsilloliths) are caused by an accumulation of sulfur producing bacteria and debris that become lodged in the tonsils, Mucous from post nasal drip collects in the tonsil crypts,(tiny holes in the tonsils). Nasal sinus drops and occasional use of an oxygenating spray will neutralize the sulfur. Be sure and scrap the back of your tongue also. See your doctor, or talk to your local druggest.
