TONSIL STONES. I get them on the daily for weeks. Why? And how to manage? (Can it be a Food intolerance?) Doc just told me to keep my Dental hygiene up but it doesn’t work.

I get them all the time because my tonsils are shaped weird. Mine have little crevices kinda that make it easy for anything to get stuck. Also allergiesafe it worse

Do you have strep throat/bronchitis/tonsillitis? After getting strep for the 5th time I get tonsil stones daily now and the only way to stop is to get my tonsils removed. Sometimes I can go a week or 2 without any, but it's very rare. I knew someone in highschool and their tonsil stones were due to a medication side effect. I take my tonsil stones out with a wet q-tip as gently as possible, because it will cause bleeding. Or cough REALLY hard and they'll dislodge (cough face down into the sink or in a tissue, I've forgotten and coughed onto the mirror).
