Great video Dr. Veer. Many people have never heard of tonsil stones. I’ve had a few patients with them over the years and have found eliminating processed sugar from the diet significantly reduces the symptoms of bad breath… which returns as their sugar intake increases. Next time I might suggest they consult an ENT surgeon for assessment. Thanks again for such great information.

@@VikVeerENTSurgeon How do I know if I have lingual tonsil stones

1 - I have noticed a moderate increase in tonsil stone production when I have foods/drinks with active yeast i.e. Beer and leavened breads (also rice/pasta/nuts which can become lodged) 2 - "Smart Mouth" mouthwash seems to help dislodge some on the debris and improve overall oral cleanliness and improve breath (although my stones tend to be small and not cause particularly bad breath but rather a foul taste). 3 - Some antibiotics (taken for other reasons) seem to have reduced tonsil inflammation as well as reduced the size and frequency of the stones. 4 - Spraying the tonsils with a waterpik can help dislodge them... and a waterpik is just a good oral care tool to have. You can also use the shower head to help apply a bit of slightly pressurized warm water to the affect area. 5 - Brush your tongue and get as far back as you can. 6 - Gargle. 7 - Cough as if you had a hair stuck in the back of your throat 8 - Generally, understand that you have areas in your throat in which debris, pus, bacteria et cetera can accumulate and try to keep the fissures in the tonsils clear of debris. They should reduce in size over time thus reducing the frequency and severity of tonsil stones as well. 9 - Stop going mouth to south! :-p :-(

i had tonsil stones in my troat for about 3 years now thank you

I got a tonsil stone that is showing when I swallow but I can't get it out I just realized it yesterday. It is behind my tonsil and the upper part of it. When I swallow it shows. I tried digging it with my finger but it won't come out. I don't feel pain or anything but after digging it seems like it's stuck or just forming. I did gargle it's annoying. Should I wait and let it fall out by itself? How would I know if it would fall out by itself or won't. Usually my other tonsil stones fall out by itself if not it's just very small stones or one medium one. It's been months since I don't have tonsil stone . This tonsil stone is annoying because it's stuck up near the uvula and behind the flap on the tonsil only when I use my throat muscles to swallow it shows . Do find it annoying but no pain I do kind of feel it.

Hey doctor, i have one right now in the back of my dangly thing and its a bit long, and these tips you gave i cant do them for a specific reason, but do tonsil stones go away on their own?

What are you looking. For itried to find this tonsils balls nothing how do you locate them I have my tonsils out so what I'm looking for

I get tonsil stones in waves, with maybe 3-4 coming out every few days for a week or so, and then nothing for months. I've never been able to see them in my throat at all, but I can tell they are there because I can taste them (gross). It seems like most people can plainly see their stones and remove them, but I have to rely on a more blind toothbrush jabbing approach, which generally works. It's curious to me that my dentist has never mentioned the tonsil stones, I wonder if they also can't see them? All in all pretty frustrating, but I do appreciate reading other comments here - makes me feel less embarrassed about the whole thing. I am getting to be in my later 30s now, and others have said that this will just go away with time.... we'll see.

I wish there was a cure. People treat you quite poorly (kinda understandable) when you have bad breath. They also blame you, “you have bad hygiene”, so they feel better about their reactions. Brush and floss all you want. Until we get tools to address the back throat, soft palate and sinus, it’s game over.

Hello doctor. I suffer from tonsil stones occasionally. And I normally know cause I feel throat discomfort so I remove them carefully with a qtip. Then it feels fine. Tonight I felt the same discomfort and I can see a tonsil stone. But it a little too far down for me to reach Bothers to swallow. But too far down to try to remove. Should I wait to see if it dislodges on its own. Or if I go to a ent they could remove it? Thanks so much! Joe

Hey doctor thankyou for the video,I've been having chronic tonsil stones for 6 months now and when I went to see the ENT I was diagnosed with pharyngitis (throat Ulcers) after the tonsils healed,I was then put on 3 shots of benzathine penicillin got my 2nd recently and now the tonsil stones came back healed and the ulcers are back,my question is are my tonsil stones causing these throat Ulcers what should I do?

I think I have tonsil stones because when I run my hand down my throat I notice it, but I don't see any, and I have bad breath, I don't know what to do, I do all the remedies that I see and none help me

I know when I have one because the area between my inner ear and back of throat itches like crazy. I just "scratch" my throat by vibrating it. Everyone hates it but it clears them out without using foreign objects.

Hi Dr can tonsil stone cause congestion in ear or tube connecting ear and nose? As I am suffering from this and found out stones in tonsil about a week ago. Another video ll be helpful for many thanks

Sir i have this tonsiltis like in my throat its swelling but it dosent hurt its been here for months is this cancer?? Im so scared

I had my saliva glands cleared of stones a couple years ago, now I find a stone in my throat....is there an end? We do have a high calcium in our water....is it a cause?

I actually have tonsil stones and there’s times where it will make me throw up because I cough so bad but when I do throw up the tonsil stones come up with it and I get rid of them for a while but it’s really hard on my system in my body

I am feeling weird stuff at the back of my tonsils and I had a lot of them the past days, but this time its not visible and I think its a tonsil stone. Then my taste is kinda affected and has a little sore throat.

I had a operation on that however they come back, my everyday life is sleeping and waking up with tonsils I need help😭🌍

I don’t get visible ones but ones in my throat and I can feel them when I swallow. I have sneezed two up this month. Is this something that will go away on its own with time or does an ENT need to be called? I don’t even know if they can help since they are in my throat.

I pull and or gargle with oil (e.g. olive oil). It dislodges them. But L also use a dental water jet. These two keep the culprits away.

I also had a tonsil stone in my tonsils and it was paining so much I did consult so many doctors some of them told me to remove by tools and some of them told me not to try tools at all because if it starts bleeding it cannot be stopped and have medicine and if medicine does not work the tonsil will need to be removed by operation so I was very tensed And took medicine prescriped by the doctor ,I just took I dose and I started crying so hard for some personal reason and guess what my tonsil stone get remove itself as I was crying very badly some pressure was created in my tonsil and it automatically removed itself and now I am very thankful to God ❤️

Last year i have strep throat 4 times. The last time was in October. I took antibiotics and have been gargling with salt twice a day. Early this year January I noticed bad breaths and I Checked and saw white dots near my tonsil. And I noticed it comes and go. Now I have it almost every week. I tried to gargle with salt water and cough it out. I succeeded a few times but it keeps coming back and I don’t like it when I can feel the smell. Do you think I have chronic infection?

What is the microscopic make up of stones? Not a guess - an actually pathologist looking at it.

It was such a big topic I left it out. it's basically a BioFilm.

If you have a constant bad taste in your mouth, a constant bad smell in your nose, it has been continuous for over a year, sinusitis has been ruled out along with tonsil stones as per ENT, what else do you think it could be? Both oral steroids and a steroid spray has been used with no effect.

Try black charcoal powder mix with warm water and gargle, add some oil of oregano, neem oil, clove, u can use a round tip syringe to flush, drink tons of water with lemon, lime, cucumber ....must avoid surgery foods cookies, cake, donuts. Etc. Try a good throat spray, like echinacea.

sorry this quuestion is not relevant to tonsils , but what camera and lense do you use to film this?

I think its in the description. Canon camera (can't remember which one - it's in the description), and I now mostly use 50mm f1.8 lens. Hope that helps?

What can I do to remove one that appears to be stuck underneath skin? I can see it but it will not budge with waterpik or cotton buds!

Can you have tonsil stones after a tonsillectomy???

I got a tonsil bleed from sticking the tip of the cotton swab into a big hole back there after removing a stone and getting everything out of the tonsil for the first time ever, but I’ll be fine.

whos doctor or specialist can check my tonsil

Very informative video! I had a question I've had tonsil stones for quite some time now ...mostly on my left tonsil. I have also been losing hair mostly on the left side of my skull..like the hair density has become extremely thin on the left side.. so I was wondering if there's a connection to having tonsil stones and hairloss? I just turned 20 this year and losing hair from such a young age is a tad bit depressing

Do you find that CCGs are reluctant to fund tonsil stone surgery?

@VikVeerENTSurgeon

3 жыл бұрын

Correct - they will not fund it. However if you ask your patients if they are causing constant distress and they have symptoms of infection, then you might be able to make a case for it. A lot of people fixate on the tonsil stones, but really they have a good history for infection. Personally I think that that the issue is more complicated than the rules allow for.

love this video. but unfortunately, I had my Tonsil removed and I still suffering from tonsil stone due to my Acid Reflux.

Hello, I had acid reflux really bad. I went to a doctor and he gave me some advice which I followed. Don't eat large meals. Do not drink a lot of liquid with your meals. Chew your food thoroughly so that it is almost liquid before swallowing. Before you eat try to put yourself in a good mood, so as to reduce cortisol. Make sure that your last meal is about 4 hours before you go to sleep, so that your stomach will be empty. Look up intermittent fasting try and follow it. Put a 2 by 4 piece of wood under your Bed Head. Do not drink cold liquids with your meals. However the last bit of advice he told me was quite interesting. He said to seek the advice of the Raj yoga people. He said acid reflux is often a result of stress, and these people would teach me to meditate and the Art of detachment. He was right

what about the tonsil stones deeper within the throat? I've heard folks that get tonsil stones removed can also still suffer because of the hidden stones within their throat

you can get them in your lingual tonsil. it takes a bit of experience to remove that. talk to your surgeon and see if he does that.

I press on my tonsils almost daily and get these out. I don't have bad breath, but I had a bunch of sore throats before staying on top of them. I make them bleed quite often, but it doesn't seem serious.

I promise you, you have breath. You're just nose blind. Ask someone else to smell your breath, I guarantee you they'll pass out. I'm not judging but it's impossible for ppl with tonsil stones to NOT HAVE BAD BREATH

Stop taking them out. My doctor said it could grow each time more than before. Also, you shouldn't remove them by yourself. Sometimes the bleeding won't stop and it causes death🚫

Get a round tip syringe and flush with a mixture of neem oil ( tiny bit beware smells like sulfur), clove oil make sure food grade oil and hydrogen peroxide never pick at your tonsils.

Came to your channel because of possible sleep apnea, but I also had tonsil stones earlier this year. Now I'm wondering, is there any correlation between OSA and tonsil stones/unusual tonsil folds? Hmmmm

@user-vr5zk9ox8d

2 жыл бұрын

The correlation does not not prove causation. While I’m not saying if there is or is not correlation between OSA, for there to be causation the tonsil stones would have to be quite severe and persistent… In which case does not seem to be the issue since you said you had them earlier in the year. However, again if the tonsil stones are creating a larger issue like tonsillitis, it could be the culprit… Or it could be just another piece to the puzzle, like toxic lymph for one… Which could be entirely plausible, and I would be open to elaborating if you wish, but it again depends on the previous questions of how persistent the tonsil stones are, or other symptoms. Answering those would help establish more of a background. Slight disclaimer though: I am in no way offering a medical advice or diagnosis online, it would be unethical without a proper examination and such. I’m only entertaining a question you proposed, but take what I say with a grain of salt as this would classify as “barstool medicine;” there’s no access to medical records, labs, imaging, specialists or even basic things like vital signs, etc.

Speaking from experience, these are not "puss". More likely accumulation of starchy grains, e.g. bread, pasta, rice, etc.
