Tonsil Stones
Tonsils are two oval-shaped pads of tissue, located at each side of the back of the throat. Tonsil stones are also known as tonsilloliths or tonsilliths. They formed by accumulations of bacteria and debris in the crypts of some people's tonsils. This debris hardens or calcifies and form stones. This happens most often in people who have inflammation for a long time in their tonsils or repeating tonsillitis. Small tonsilloliths are normal in many people, but it's rare to have a large tonsil stone.
This problem may cause discomfort. Tonsillitis can be painful as well as frustrating. It is not risky and is usually easily treatable. Tonsil stones sometimes dislodge by themselves. Generally, tonsil stones are harmless and will go away with proper oral hygiene and at-home removal.
