If it’s only 2 mo that you suffer from this problem , you can try to take it/them out of your tonsillar crypts , with something ring shape , or also a little pincer .
If you couldn’t do this , you can go to an ENT office , the doctor first will try to get rid of them with above mentioned methods , but in situations such as chronic tonsillitis , and also recurrent stones , or patient’s complain regarding halitosis , the doctor will decide to perform tonsillectomy operation for exact cure .
There are also other methods to minimize the depth of the crypts such as radiofrequency , chemical cauterization and . . .
go to a doctor ASAP, your tonsils have to be removed, it gets harder as you get older.
I had the same thing.
It is just a build up of bacteria in your tonsils.
Make sure you brush your teeth and tounge very well and also drink alot of water and they should go away. They are very common and very smelly and disgusting and cause very bad breath. If you get them, it’s usually a sign that you are fighting a cold or some other type of illness. You can also pop them out with a Q-tip…. disgusting but yeah. Mouthwash is a must!!
