• Answer:

  A tonsil stone is like a big hard white head pimple waiting to be popped. At-home removal. Some people choose to dislodge tonsil stones at home with the use of picks or cotton swabs. Salt water gargles. Gargling with warm, salty water may help alleviate the discomfort of tonsillitis, which often accompanies tonsil stones. For a sore throat or bad breathe use hydrogen peroxide to kill germs and bacteria in the mouth and throat. Mix one tablespoon Hydrogen Peroxide with one tablespoon of water. Swish in mouth at least one minute. Or tilt the head back allowing the mixture to bath the back of the throat. Can swish or bath up to two minutes. Then spit out. DO NOT SWALLOW. Use up to four times daily or as directed by a doctor. My doctor gave me these instructions and when I bought a bottle of hydrogen peroxide from COSTCO I notice the same instruction the doctor gave me were written on the bottle. Sure was great for my sore throat and bad breath also many family members like using hydrogen peroxide. Taking ones tonsils out is a last resort. Don't remove the tonsils by yourself. Seek medical attention for the removal of tonsils. Good Health to You
