Have you ever heard of tonsil stones? They are those white balls at the back of the throat that is the result of bacteria, food particles and post nasal drip. They can vary in size but normally they are pea sized. They can even cause discomfort and bad breath which we do not want to have at all. They can be stuck in the throat which gives us a gagging feeling. If you have tonsil stones, and want a cure for tonsil stones, then here are some of the things that you can do to remove it.
First of all, one needs to start with hygiene, oral hygiene in order for the food particles or oral bacteria not to thrive. Brush teeth after each meal, in this way one can minimize bacteria that stays in the mouth. You can also brush your tongue or scrape it in order to get all the bacteria and particles that stuck on the tongue.
Second, minimize intake of dairy products. Calcium which is present in dairy products is one of the contributing factors in tonsil stones. Other cure for tonsil stones includes, gargling with a mix of salt and water, doing it at least 3 minutes a day. Make sure that you do not eat before going to bed, this can really produce and increase the growth of oral bacteria.
Also, if the above tips will not work out, it is best that you consult a doctor about your problem and see if you can both agree to have your tonsils removed which brings you problem like tonsil stones. Although they can be removed manually but I say that you should not risk it, always ask your doctors' advice.
If you have tonsil stones and want a cure for tonsil stones, then have your tonsils removed so that you would not be suffering from it anymore. You would be able to live a normal life again although you need to keep on doing the preventive measures in order to refrain the tonsil stones to come back. Practice good oral hygiene to keep the tonsil stones away.
