What can i do if tonsil stones are stuck in my throat, not tonsils?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Remove them: Get a penlight and a mirror and half-unbend a paper clip. You'll get good at it. This works wherever the little smelly things have gotten lodged. You probably won't hurt yourself. A water pick is even better. If it's truly a nuisance, a otolaryngologist can laser-resurface your tonsils.
