I went swimming about a year ago and, when attempting to do a backflip off the diving board, I landed on my back and noticed something in my mouth. It was a pretty large white lump. I had no idea what this was but it smelled really bad. I fished a few more out from both sides of my throat using my finger and a cotton swab. I am glad that I can put a name to these disgusting things. I have had them off and on since this first experience and most recently the throat pain has been really extreme and I noticed blood around the stones. Is this a more serious problem? I don't drink, smoke, have allergies, nor am I prone to any kind of infection...

I dip a q-tip in dr. Tichner's concentrated mouthwash and rub it on the tonsil. I then induce a sneeze and itcomes out! So gross! If that doesn't work, I gargle with the concentrated mouthwash and it comes out again with a sneeze. The mouthwash is very strong but it works for me,

I suffer from these white/yellow horrible smelly things as well. I'm so glad I found out what they are and what to do to help remove them. The Tonsil Stones hurt sometimes and have the worst smell. Thanks for the site and your comments.

I'm so glad I'm not alone!
I am 17 and I have had these things for a while but more frequently now that I eat more often because I am a "growing boy" but I noticed they really come up when my mouth gets dry or when I bring up mucus. Its annoying, puts a bad taste in my mouth and makes me gag. I hate these clumps..or as my mom calls them "puss pockets". My friends think I'm weird and I won't dare let a girl know about my situation but I need help =(

I started noticing tonsil stones in my early 20's (I'm 30 now) and went to two ear, nose and throat specialests after my regular doctor told me they were anything to worry about. The first ENT doctor took one look in my mouth for all of 5 seconds and told me my tonsils we enflamed and the only solution was to have them taken out. Not being happy with the 5 second diagnoses I went to the 2nd ENT doctor and this guy took two long, flat wooden sticks and squeezed my tonsils with them. I was amazed when he showed me all of the tonsil stones he squeezed out of there. It was like he totally cleaned out my tonsils. He told me I had Chronic Cryptoses and the only cure was to have my tonsils taken out. I wasn't very fond of the idea since my regular doctor had told me that the older you get the worse the recovery is and the more dangerous it is so I never had them taken out and still get the stones. The strange thing is that I've gone for long periods of time without getting them and then all the sudden they will appear again. I use a Q-tip to squeeze them out but sometimes I can feel them down lower in my tonsils almost down in my throat and those ones are very hard to get out. I hate these things and hope that they go away for good...soon!

Im 23 and have had tonsil stones since I was in elementary. Im happy to know Im not the only one. Honestly, everyone has their own methods of removing them. Right now, I use a pointy cutip used for makeup for the easy stones. But for the deep ones you can't get out, I found that using a water syringe (aka water jet) with warm salt water works well. Just fill up the water syringe and put it in the tonsil hole and start squirting and it loosens it. Yes you will gagg, but its actually better to gagg because it makes you cough and it gets the stones out easier. So DON"T be afraid to gagg. ALSO, keep your mouth and tongue CLEAN!!! Get everything if you can off your tongue every night before you go to bed. And when brushing your tongue, go back as far as you can go regardless if it makes you gagg because I have coughed up a lot of stones by just gagging. And changing your diet and not eating dairy is good, Im just now starting to look out for that, so I can't say if its 100% accurate. But Ive read books about this and they said number one thing to change is your diet. Hope this helps

If tonsil stones are food particles that become lodged in tonsil crypts that are then attacked by white blood cells, adding to the stone, how can Doctors not be more worried? It's like a body fighting constant infection in the tonsils, day in day out. Won't fighting constant infection wear a person out? Like a splinter just left under the skin to fester.

How can I permanently remove them without a surgery?

Had them for years. Gargeling with a mixture of warm salt water and hydrogen peroxide a couple of times a week keeps mine away. The peroxide foams them off, the salt water kills the bacteria.

I think those of you contributing pot smoking and drinking to the stones are kind of correct but way off... Firstly alcohol has antibiotic properties in it, hence a cleaning effect in your mouth. Cannabis has antibiotic properties as well. In particular the CBD cannabinoid. This may cause them to shrink enough to make it through the opening and into an area you can get to them. These form from mucus, dead cells from your mouth and bacteria. Thats it.

I never knew I had tonsil stones and have had them for years until I started to read about them on the internet. I stopped eating crunchy foods like popcorn, apples, nuts, because it seemed as these foods aggrevated the problem. I am in my early 40s and the ENT doctor said it would be no problem to take out my tonsils. I wanted that laser procedure done (the one wher you are awake, like in a dentist's chair, but he said me gag reflex is so sensitive that he thought it would be horrible for me. I am afraid to have the tonsils out at 40. I set up an appointment but not sure I can go through with it now. I have picked out the tonsil stones with , yes a butter knife , which usually works, but sometimes I cut into the tonsil a little. I guess maybe the q-tip would be better or I get them taken out like the doctor suggested.

Ive had them for years. Using a ear swab, push under the stone and it will pop out kinda like a pimple. Its so gross, I finally had my tonsiles removed.
