Please answer well my doctor said i have to get my tonsil removed but i feel fine everyday only when i get sick i get a really bad throat every time i go the doctor he says to remove them but when my cold goes away i feel just fine please answer should i get them removed or not??
I am constantly tired all the time and have normal sleep schedule and what not....I just noticed that I had these stones, could this be the cause of my lethargy?
I went to the speacialist and she said that my tonsils are sorta in a horrible shape and that it caused tonsils stones and the only way to be for sure to get rid of it is to remove my tonsils. I have felt that my throat is in terrible shape, my choir singing is bothering, and the breath and stones are just annoying. I agree to surgery but will it effect my siging? My speaking voice? Does anyone know?
How can tonsil stones (tonsilloliths) be prevented?
Since tonsil stones are more common in people who have chronic tonsillitis, the only surefire way to prevent their occurrence is with surgical removal of the tonsils. This procedure, known as a tonsillectomy, removes the tissues of the tonsils entirely, thereby eliminating the possibility of tonsillolith formation.
I read online that GSE can be toxic in high concentration like 8-11%.... Is that why you water it down? And is it possible to feel fever like symptoms from tonsil stones?
i wouldnt recommend gargling with the grapefruit seed extract before or after brushing teeth because its acid will damage your teeth in this special time.
not sure, use it maybe half an hour after or before
Im trying to get hold of a curve tipped syringe here in te UK. the common one is the monoject 412. So annoying tho. The tonsilstones site sell a pack of 2 for $15, but on amazon you can get them for about 89 cents! However, they wont ship to the UK :(
If you think that's a big price difference, one UK site is selling the same syringe for £22!! (about $40!!) Ridiculous :( Amazing how they can sell the same thing for the price mark up.
hes so wrong the tonsiliths are the fecal remains of bacteria in your mouth. You must kill the bacteria by using antiseptic rinse and cleaning the tounge and the roof of your mouth.
Had a problem a month ago with my tonsils. I found this post by accident. Thanks, I had forgot about GSE. My husband saved a friend's life with GSE. This person was abroad with parasites, kept losing weight and had diarrhea constantly. He started taking GSE and cured his problem.
every body stop eating products that have milk and they will stop comoing back if you are lactosintolorant you will get tonsil stones get milk of diet
its soooo worth it to get them out, i used to get tonsil stones all the time. im on my third day after surgery. its not as bad as people make it sound.
i bought some grapefruit seed extract a few months ago, i swabbed inside my tonsil crypts with a little therabreath mouthwash and this with a qtip. and i also use a neti pot and water pik daily. I still get them but its better than it was before I used any of the four previously.
i think the reason why i keep geting tonsil stones is because i chew the lining of my cheeks and swallow it. when i keep doing this it causes my tonsils to catch this and keep building it up the more i swallow it. its a really bad habit that i do when i'm nervous or bored. i should stop cause those things are gross.
No dear, that will not give you tonsil stones..it's decaying food that gets trapped in the crypts in your tonsils..best way to deal with them is to gargle daily and vigorously with some warm salt water or a bit of peroxide in water..these are natural and cheap ways to clean the throat and the more often you do it, the less tonsil stones you will have. Also I find that with prolonged use of salt water those crypts slowly close in over time..but you have to be patient.
this sound great but i want an actual cure and i know your site could help cure me but im 16 and anything i have to order off your site would involve me asking my parents and i just cant talk to them about my bad breath issue its just to embarrassing could u help me.
Yes they will come back. Often times in the exact same spot. This is because as they grow, they stretch the cavity they originate in thus making it even easier for you crypts to trapt the gunk that makes these next time.
I just purchased some of the tablets of the GSE nutribiotics and I was wondering if that will help with sinus infections and tonsil stones or do I need to buy it in liguid form. I'm guessing it will help with some of those issues but I'm thinking about buying the liquid GSE as well.
One thing that has been recommended to me (by many doctors) as part of my daily ritual is gargling salt water (essencially because you are battling bacteria). But I guess I'll have to try this grapefruit thing. Thanks for that.
I've been doing a lot of research for tonsilloliths and this seems like the most incredible and yet promising idea, I hope this be like BHA's to acne, yet can't totally cure it, at least it prevents =). I will post results later on.
I have some gum recession that I'm really concerned about. Yesterday, I bought a bottle of GSE at a Whole Foods Market, and I used 3 drops of it this afternoon in a cup with a bit of water. I could taste the bitterness as I swished it and gargled it. I also put another 5 drops into the same small cup wit water, and I drank it as a supplement, antibacterial and PH balance.
i bought some grapefruit seed extract some months back and I use it along with my therabreath and neti pot. and i use it along with my facial cleanser. i love that it can be used for many things. :-)
There HAS to be an actual CURE for this other then having your tonsils removed. Im struggling so much with this, my throat is sore everyday, i feel exhausted.
Sombody please message me an actual solution. i have used every brand of mouthwash, salt water, throat sprays. Nothing stops it coming back
This is what has worked for me. Get a Waterpik and use a throat irrigation tip. You can order the tip online - just do a search for it. Will flush your tonsils (and the stones) out.
@darkwhitty Have you checked if you have aesophageal-gastric-reflux? it is simple, you lay down to sleep, and acid from your stomach climbs from down there to you aesophagus and throat, if you suffer from heartburn, irritable bowel disease (when your bowels swell they push and shove in which every other way, compressing the stomach)
@darkwhitty I too have very similar symptoms to this. Not only are these things a huge annoyance but I have a sore throat almost everyday as well. Are there any ways aside from surgery?
@darkwhitty HEY i have had tonsil stones and bad breath for 7 years and about a year ago i found out that this was my problem. so i did research on how to get rid of them and everything i tried dident work. so i decided to get a tonsillectomy and this is my second day after surgery and im already feeling better. it is totaly worth it so i dont know if you still struggle from this but take it from me who has gone through years of stress and embarrassment. ITS WORTH IT!!! DO IT!!!
@darkwhitty Have you seen an ENT? This is for tonsil stones, not actual swollen glands!! A constant sore throat is the sign of enlarged tonsils that may actually need to be removed. Removing the bacteria that causes small tonsil stones will not cure your frequent sore throats.
I got tonsil stones too. really the only thing you can do is maintain it by using long q-tips and fingers to wiggle the stuff out then gargle with mouthwash until you can afford one of the surgical methods of sealing those crypts.
HOWEVER, I've found that putting a drop of the strongest anti-bacterial soap I can find on the tip of a thermometer and sticking it down into the crypt then gargling the excess soap out kills a LOT of the smell but not the stones from coming back.
@darkwhitty Well you can't cure mucus running down from your sinuses so you can get rid of the ones that form or you can get rid of the tonsils themselfs. I actually cut off the end of a q-tip and use the stub to pick them out. it's probably not good but whatever
ohh, you know exactly how I feel. I hate tonsil stones!!!! I ussualy gargl water with salt after I eat but I will try grapefruit extract. Hopefully, it'll work : /
Yes it's normal to have enlarged tonsil(s) if the tonsil stones reside on one side or the other. Check out our website if you'd like to have a more in depth discussion! Take Care - Josh
@GSKD13333 I had a massive tonsil which I had to pick with a cocktail stick to remove these things the other one was not so big and did not produce tonsil stones its interesting to hear from someone with a similar problem I had my tonsils out 28 years ago now but still remember the grief they caused it was so big I used to nearly swallow it when I swigged a pint down
i have tonsil stones stuck in my crypts i can't get it out its to suck inside my tonsils.... i was wondering.. what does the grapfruit seed extract do? if i gargle it will it dissovle the tonsil stones? or just mask the smell?
It stops them from producing, whether through dissolving I'm not sure but it's worked wonders for so many people! If you want more information on it check out our website there's links to try it out for less than $10 shipped, plus a bunch of information and comments! =] Cheers
i just removed a massive one with my finger! i feel great now!
