Bad breath for years… had no idea… about 12-15 of these came out
I’ve been debating stopping smoking, and after I inhaled ash and coughed this up, I decided it was high time.
I realized it was a tonsil stone and went to shine a light and saw more. I took a sanitized metal chopstick and gently pushed out and coughed up all the ones I could see.
I wound up getting like 12-15 of these little bastards, and gee whillikers, I immediately noticed a massive improvement to my breath. I’m so grateful I discovered this.
I bled a tiny bit while removing. Now I’m pretty sure I should gurgle warm salt water each day for a bit, or non-alcoholic mouthwash to prevent them returning.
At what point should I consider having the tonsils completely removed? I’m sure I probably missed 1 or more of them probably hidden in places I can’t see.
Thank you for your time
