A member asked:
Can pus in the tonsil be like a hard thing?like even if i rub it it won't feel soft? is it possible for a pus to get in this condition in tonsil case
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tonsil stone: Look up tonsil stone on youtube. It's a collection of food that gets trapped in your tonsil. Other than being annoying, these things are not worrisome. Some patients elect for tonsillectomy if it last for a long time and nothing else helps.
