Tonsil stones, the name brings chills to my body. Do you know why? Because I’ve lived 10+ years with these things and never even knew what they were. Tonsilloliths live in your tonsils and only show their faces when they feel like creating extreme chaos by giving you HORRIBLE breath. They’re not fun I tell you! In this guide I’ll cover some FAQ that I get a lot through emails and comments, as well as cover some of the best of the best in tonsil stone resources and products. Share this article!
Q: I feel like I have something stuck way behind my tongue at the back of my throat area, do I have tonsil stones?
A: Most likely, yes. If you have a persistent “stuck popcorn kernal” feeling in the back of your throat it very well could be the dreaded stones creeping into your life. Get ready for a ride.
Q: Is a tonsillectomy the only effective method to prevent tonsil stones?
A: Definitely not. There’s many great methods of stopping the dreaded “stones of death breath”. Dietary changes such as eliminating dairy, in combination with great oral hygiene, will cause your PND (post nasal drip) to stop, which is the first step to clearing tonsil stones. There’s also a digital guidebook to guide you step by step through all of the best methods and practices on your path to better breath enlightenment.
Q: Can I still get tonsil stones even if I get a tonsillectomy?
A: Unfortunately, yes. In a lot of cases a tonsillectomy ( where they essentially cut your tonsils out ) will leave behind small traces of the tonsillar crypts. These small holes are what harbor the stones in their early life. If you do choose to use the surgery route, do a tonsillectomy + laser removal to smooth the surfaces. This is because any hole still in the area around your tonsils will create tonsil stones so it’s essential to smooth the surface.
Q: I have tonsil stones but I don’t know if I have bad breath. How can I tell?
A: The best way to find out is to ask somebody really close to you. It’s still embarrassing I know but you’ll honestly feel better after knowing the truth. If they say “yes”, don’t feel bad because tonsil-help.com (me!) is here to help!
