name is Lesli Paterson, and welcome to my blog. I created this blog to
help other people like me who are suffering with tonsil stones.
I tried many different products and guides, but the guide recommended here is the only thing that has worked for me
there is no such thing as a tonsil “stone”. Tonsils can become inflammed or infected.. they are two nodules that are located at the back of the throat.. you can see them.. normally they are appear to look like little round pink balls on each side of the uvula in the back of the throat.
Your white tonsils ‘stones’ are from an infection. These stones can range from rice size to pea size. Before I had my tonsils taken out (at 18 years old!), I used to have to clean my tonsils out with a Qtip. The correct term is Cryptic Tonsils for what you have. Pus, food and other nasties can enter the cryptic tonsil and make it look bad. I don’t know if you have had many sore throats/infections, but you might ask your doctor about removal. Hope this helps.
who knows? a stone on the tonsil sounds very unhealthy -see a doctor.
LOL!
