They are a side effect of having hightened immune defensed in the nose and mouth and things sometimes getting clogged up.
In order for evolution to do away with them they would have to be a serious hindrance to survival and/or reproduction.

Tonsil stones are caused by bits of food that get stuck and then grow bacteria the same as plaque, brushing and rinsing takes care of that problem.

Probably this, I used to get them as a kid fairly often when I was drinking soda and eating junk food more often. Haven't had one for a really long time since I mostly stopped eating that stuff. Also brush your teeth after you eat, every time, even if it's just a small snack. You don't want bits of food sitting in your mouth for a long time.

That is an ear irrigation bulb. It will work for flushing tonsil stones. Usually used to flush otearic acid from the ear canal when cleaning your ears.
You can find them in the pharmacy area near the eye drops. Not too expensive, just clean well after use.

Okay guys I'm an expert. Had tonsil stones for year, and no longer do. Solution is simple. Basic stuff first: Your tonsils trap particles of food inside their crypts, that's what tonsils are supposed to do. Your job is to clean out the crypts everyday. How? I use a hockey squeeze bottle with a waterpik tip inserted into the nozzle. Your hand aims and propels the stream with gentle pressure to not hurt the tonsils and yet precise and forceful enough to flush out crypts of all food particles. I can flush one tonsil in about 20 seconds with the assist of a steel chopstick to nudge open/angle crypts to the stream of water. I have about 5 crypts of various sizes on each tonsil. Don't use waterpik. Any kind of waterpik is going to cut the delicate tonsil tissue and you will bleed and get an infection - trust me. I've tried a variety of waterpiks. The best type of stream is delivered by a squeeze bottle, $2 in the sporting goods section. One or two generous squirts per crypt is all you need. Water is the best cleanser. The simple introduction of water into the crypt will displace these tiny food particles - they are not lodged in there like stubborn tonsil stones. The flow of water is enough to carry these particles out. Tonsil cleaning to me is in the same category as flossing teeth, in both procedures you are mechanically removing food particles stuck in your mouth. Reminder: I'm not flushing out tonsil stones; I'm flushing out bits of food in order to prevent tonsil stones from forming. Sometimes the food particles are so tiny I don't even see them, they can be liquid food too. However over the course of months these tiny particles accumulate and then bacteria joins the party, resulting in tonsil stones. If you flush out your tonsil crypts every day, you will never see tonsil stones. No food in tonsils = no tonsil stones.

No one is going to listen to me, but I'm going to go out on a limb and post it anyway. I had these fuckers every 2 weeks until I was 20 years old, like clockwork. Needless to say, it was torturous.

I'll be brief on this, the solution is cut out dairy, sugar, and possibly caffeine, but especially dairy + sugar together (ice cream, for example)

These infections were so relevant in my life that I really hope you can listen/read what I went through. This shit nearly ruined my life for decades until I changed my diet and started eating a lot more vegetables and cut out dairy/processed sugar/caffeine. I couldn't afford the surgery, but in hind-site, it was a blessing in disguise when I learned how important your tonsils are.

Don't get your tonsils removed, they're a major part of your immune system - read about the ramifications of tonsil removal, your tonsils are the first defense against oral infections and supply the body with vital antibodies.

I've been free from this curse for over 7 years now, not even one outbreak since I changed my diet.

In real life, and online, when and if I bring up the "d" word (diet), everyone freaks out and calls me a homeopathic idiot, or something to that extent. Apparently, people seem to think that diet has no relation to any of their issues, hence my opening statement.


>>10966435

Funny enough, I don't miss ice-cream at all anymore. It's amazing how addictive dairy is to the human body. Casein is one hell of a phosphoprotein. Once you're off it for a month or two, you won't even think about it.

[Anonymous No.10966568]

I get tonsiliths but they're always so deep in their crypts I can't dislodge them. Sometimes they stick out enough for me to dig part of it out with a toothpick, otherwise one will dislodge randomly every few weeks-months. I know they're back there though I constantly taste them/smell them sometimes.

I got mine out for this reason. They were also very large (can sing better after getting them out).

I had BAAAD stones. Like I had to clean them with a qtip every night to get them out, otherwise I had terrible breath.

Worst pain in my life for 12 days. Day 7 my throat started bleading and I had to go under for surgery again. I was on a rotation of pain meds on every 4 hours. (Was 24 when I got them out)

Would I go through it again? In a heartbeat. 10/10 no more bad breath, strep, sore throat (lesser pain), could swallow pills better, could sing better. Would recommend.

Just lie to your dr and say you keep getting strep.

If they're being that obstructive, as shown in random picture you have attached, then it's definitely something to check up on.

In general, go to your doctor. If it's bothering you, you might want to look into a tonsillectomy-- definitely just ask a lot of questions to make your visit worthwhile. But if you get tonsil stones every once in a while, it's not a big deal, we all get that shit.

This is the exact bottle I use. The waterpik tip fits perfectly snug into the black tip of the bottle. The combined reach of the 2 components allows you to squirt right into the crypt with the bottle far enough away from your mouth that you can see which crypt your are doing in the mirror. I use plain tap water. Salt might affect the good bacteria in the tonsils, so I don't want to risk it, but it's probably ok. btw this is my own discovery, though I'm sure many ppl have arrived at my insight about cleaning the tonsils routinely is as essential as brushing or flossing or tongue cleaning.
