A member asked:
I had a tonsillectomy 2 months ago b/c of painful tonsil stones. today my throat is really sore and i see another tonsil stone! what are my options?

See doctor: You need to see an otolaryngologist (ear, nose and throat specialist doctor) for an evaluation. Usually, removal of the tonsil will stop further tonsillolith (stone) formation. Salt water gargling may dislodge the stone.
