    I'll have my stones hit your tons.., umm I mean I actually think I have these to some extent but never knew it until I saw the kidney stone thread. A few times I've kind of felt these hit my tongue and tried to figure out what food I ate that looked like it, they were small though so hopefully I don't have it too bad.

    I get a tiny one from time to time but I've never had it as bad as any of these videos. Very small pieces occasionally.

    holy god I can't even watch the entire cheesefactory video, this is fucking disgusting. My greatest fear is a.) finding one and b.) accidentally swallowing it.

    I get those sometimes. I have big tonsils, so if I'm by myself, like in the bathroom, I'll just kinda move my mouth so my tonsils rub on my through and they come out. Otherwise, I just shove a finger in there and gag them all up.

    I have them, people complain of my breath on occasion, and nothing really solves it.
    They only become noticeable however, on the rare occasions I become sick. During/After, i usually feel a few pieces and fish them out (I use the handle end of a toothbrush to squeeze them out.)

    I had a somewhat unpleasant throat illness earlier this year, and all the crypts in my tonsils basically oozed this watery goo, tonsillitis basically. iirc, you don't need a tonsillectomy unless you have a really bad case, or a bunch of cases rather frequently (probably every few months).

    Gargle with Biotine instead of Scope you nasty-mouthed naggers.

    This thread has got me paranoid, but I gotta stop looking. I get them infrequently, nobody has ever complained about my breath, and no dentist ever gagged inspecting my mouth.

    I get them quite frequently; I usually can get one out every week or two. It only happens on one side, but when I need to get them out I usually just use a Q-tip and hydrogen peroxide. They don't really bother me but I hate knowing they are in there. I haven't had any complaints of bad breath, either.

    If it really annoys you but you don't want your tonsils removed, you can have a procedure done called cryptolysis, which will smooth out the tonsil so that there are no longer any crypts for food/debris to collect in.

    the smell is nothing short of horrific. i'd liken it to rotting asshole, and it projects like ten feet out. i broke it off with a broad about a year ago after we'd been seeing each other for a week because she had these in a major way, figured at first it was just a freak occurrence but it didn't go away. i could not stomach that shit.

    if i ever get these things, i won't think twice about getting my tonsils hacked out.

    I thought the gag reflex was on the tongue way in the back?



    I was checking for Tonsil Stones today with my finger and I couldn't feel any. hurray for the lack of a gag reflex.

    Good luck w/ the bad breath lol. And damn Canti, didn't you know were one of those stinkers. I've stumbled upon people whose breath smelled like shit, I wonder if this was what caused it ;x
