A member asked:

What are the home remedies for tonsil stones? when will you know if it's a serious matter?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Cryptic Tonsils: you get stones or particles in the tonsils because you have what are called cryptic tonsils.They have folds and holes in them that food particles get stuck in you can gargle deeply or use a water pick to help get the particles out, but ultimately the treatment is to remove the tonsils. This is done if they are constantly or recurrently inflamed or infected, if one has severe bad breath, see ENT.
