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!

seem to have a acute sore throat pretty often.
i talked to my Ear nose & throat doctor and he said that he would take my tonsils out for me or he could put my on a long regimen of antibiotics. I wasn’t thrilled with the idea so i said i would think about it.
I was reading about how your tonsils and ears are connected, and im starting to reconsider having them out.
Every time i chew gum it feels like i have fluid in my ear, also i feel like i don’t hear as well as i should…..Im 16.
Could this all be connected?
and if i get them out does your hearing increase and will it most likely fix the fluid in ear problem?

also im a singer…….it wont change my voice right?
