I have been getting tonsil stones for years! I just recently found out what they are (eww gross…thank you Yahoo! Answers). Anyway, I have tried using a dental pick, water irrigation, coughing. I have pretty good hygeine ( i floss daily and brush at least twice a day). I do have sinus problems sometimes, so I don’t know if that is the prob…anyone have any suggestions on how to avoid getting them??

I’ve had these on and off for more than a year. I tired gargling with salt/water, peroxide/water…doesn’t seem to make a difference.
Can I change my diet to rid of them for good?
well…I’ve had my tonsils for 53 years, so I’m not about to have them out, besides from what I read the “yank the tonsil” thingy doesn’t always get rid of the problem. I was hoping maybe there is something, or some diet change I could do.
