Help in 12 how can i get rid of them

I've recently discovered that I have tonsil stones. I discovered them simply through feeling them in the back of my throat. I have not experienced the bad breath effects -- yet. But being annoyed by the stones already I've been looking for a cure. Do I try purchasing products? How long will I have to use them? Do I just go for the surgery?

i had the surgery as well but the stones came back on the right side of my throat, now i am having a hard time getting them out because they are down further in my throat, what a pain, if anyone can help me with them, i would be most grateful

Lingual tonsils and adenoid can also produce stones.
So, maybe you

evan- who was your doctor? are you LA native. I am desperate for a doctor to remove mine but all they do is put me on antibiotics which dont work. I want them out- can you give me the info?

I spoke with an ENT today beacuse I recently had 13 stones in just one side! The other side I guess is so irritated (where I can't see) It just bled.. So He said I needed a tonsilectomy..

i would totally recommend a tonsillectomy as well. I'm on day 6 of recovery so I can't speak to how great my throat is post-op but here's why I'd recommend it: After surgery the Doctor went to see my husband and tell him that the procedure went well. He also said that my tonsils were in way worse shape than he had thought and were FILLED with tonsil stones which were probably the cause of many low grade infections.
I've been thinking about this and it makes sense. If ever once and awhile you're able to see a tonsil stone in your throat then it makes sense that it's just the tip of the iceberg so to speak and who knows what nasty crap is lurking deep down. Eww so gross! Plus I didn't want to be spending 10 minutes a day trying to dissect my throat for the rest of my life. Good luck!! It really does hurt but it manageable.

i've suffered from these for about a year now, when i first got them it was with a nasty tonsillitis attack that was originally mistaken for tonisillitis. i've always suffered with tonsillitis and get extremely ill with it, but with the tonsil stones on top of this it's such a pain! they keep bleeding and making my tonsils swell, my doctor has no idea what do to and keeps prescribing me antibiotics that do nothing. i've been referred to ENT, do you think they'll take my tonsils out?

i am planning to have my tonsils removed because of tonsil stones. I have had them for at least 5 yrs that i know of. I am 30 yrs old. I am scared as i have heard that tonsillectomy is worse the older u r. But its got to be worth it to keep this crap out of my throat. I am so sick of standing in front of the mirror with a flashlight in one hand and a q-tip in the other and digging till they bleed and get really sore. I am so ready to be rid of them. I have told 2 regular drs about this and both thought i was crazy i guess. I even took in a ziploc bag with stones in it and showed the 1st dr and he said he would have to see them actually coming out. Come on be for real. What a quack. The 2nd dr didnt believe me either so as we were sitting there i told him to look it up. He kept saying tonsilitit. I was like no tonsilloliths or tonsil stones. It is a real problem. He was still not convinced after it popped up on the screen. He prescribed me antibiotics(wont work i know) & made appt 4 ENT! Yay cant wait til 2mor

I never heard of these things b4 BUT all my life I've been teased by them..irritants(bug spray.bleach.spray cans of any kind ) bring on my curse.... I thought it was just a me thing but apparently NOT... I hate gettin anything near my tongue (I GAGGGG) so besides the awful noises I make to try and escavate them ....I am utterly embarrased .I don't usually express myself "like a spittin cowboy". My husband came home from work to find his LADY hauking boogers (trying to) I'm human BUT damn how is there not more focus on this at the drs and hospitals.. this is a annoying occurance(like a cold sore) EMBARRASING .but this could become a very dangerous thing...I've taken way way way tooooo many otc drugs in the past just trying to not feel that nuisance anymore..its paimful ucky and miserable...peace and hope to all my fellow tonsil stone survivors..
