Can your tonsils bleed bad after trying to get tonsil stones out. i pushed tonsils with q-stick hard and i vomit and there was much blood on vomit?

Tonsil can bleed: If you manipulate a tonsil stone within the crypt of a tonsil which may be inflamed you can get some bleeding after probing in the area. Try ice water rinses to stop and oozing and have it checked if you continue to see blood in your sputum.
