Tonsil Stones

Anyone had these? They're interesting.

Basically, my tonsils, they've got these deep crevices called "crypts" where they, like in everyone's case, trap debris and bacteria and the like so that it can't cause damage elsewhere in the body. Because of these deeper crypts, though, it keeps gathering, forming these almost rock-like white ball things that protrude from the tonsil and occassionally come out.

They're a trip.

I have those too! They got super gross when I had mono, and I hated swallowing those random goobery balls of ickyness. Me and Michael are destined for each other.

~*wOOt!*

I have no tonsils sounds like I am missing out one some serious fun.

What do you do about them, Woot? I had one come out today after gargling warm salt water but it looks like there's another there and my throat hurts to boot.

I had a topic about this! I should go find it. I looked it up online because I had no idea what they were... there's some kind of toothpaste you can use to get rid of them but you pretty much always have to use it to be completely rid of them. Funny that someone else felt the need to post about them.

yeah, heather already did this topic last year....

i remember cuz i was way excited not to be the only one suffering from these stinky little things on occasion.

"a trip" they definitely are...whatever you do, don't smell one.
