What are Tonsil Stones?
You may never have heard of tonsil stones, but much like they sound, they are small bumps that form in your tonsils. Typically, they are not painful or cause any adverse health effects. They are formed of small trapped particles of food or meat that are stuck in the tonsils. These tiny lumps form when debris gets trapped in the tonsillar crypts. Minerals, food, bacteria or fungi can become trapped and then calcify, forming the “stones”.
You may have one or many of these tiny “stones” which are white or yellow.
If you’re suffering from perpetual bad breath (halitosis), you may want to take a closer look at your tonsils. If you spot small white or yellow bumps, you might have tonsilloliths or tonsil stones.
