What do you suggest if i have a tonsil stone does it go away naturally?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually: Tonsil stones are fairly common. Eventually most stones are cleared from the tonsil. Some people prefer to squeeze their tonsils or pick the stones out. In rare cases we actually remove the tonsils for we current stones that lead to problems including bad breath and sore throat's.
