Reasons for frequent tonsil cheese? thank you doctors!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tonsil stones: By tonsil "cheese" I suspect that you are referring to stinky white globs that have the consistency of a soft cheese. These "stones" are bacterial growths that occur in some people. They occur in the nooks and crannies of the tonsils where food may get stuck. They are harmless. Gargling after eating can help minimize them.
