Tonsil Stones Pictures



Warning: The images on this page are GROSS!. Not for the squeamish.
Actually they're not that bad but consider yourself warned. Scroll down to see them.


Still not sure if you are experiencing tonsil stones?
If you have looked at your throat in the mirror and said to yourself, "that white ball might be a tonsil stone" but you're not sure, you may benefit from the tonsil stones pictures below. Bear in mind that the image you are looking at in the mirror will differ from these tonsil stones pictures. The contrast in your throat, viewing angle, lighting and other factors seem to distort the image. Although I am not experiencing tonsil stones now, I remember thinking that the tonsil stones pictures I was looking at online did not seem to be the same thing that I saw in the mirror. It was not until I removed a tonsil stone that I noticed it was actually off white and shaped like the pictures I had seen. In my throat, the tonsil stone looked more white and I could only see the protruding portion of the tonsil stone.

Make sure you remove the tonsil stone completely.
Also, keep in mind if you don't completely remove the tonsil stone from under the surface you will in fact be breaking it off and leaving half of it in your tonsil crypt. Be sure to read the article on tonsil stone removal at http://www.internettradebureau.com/articles/tonsilstones.htm.

The best way to deal with them is not to get them in the first place.
I dealt with tonsil stones for years and tried many methods for preventing them. After much failure I did find one reliable remedy for tonsil stones. There is a doctor in California, USA who theorizes that tonsil stones are caused by both post nasal drip and bacteria in your throat as well as under the surface of your tongue. He has developed a solution for tonsil stones that involves first dealing with this bacteria and drainage. Most people don't even realize their sinuses are draining enough to cause tonsil stones but combined with the "anerobic" bacteria they are likely to suffer from them. If you enter the code "A-TNS30" at you will get his tonsil stones kit for free with an order of $30. In this manner, you can try his bad breath products as well. Otherwise, the tonsil stones kit is around $36.

Good luck in dealing with your tonsil stones.

I placed the tonsil stones pictures on the bottom of this page for a reason. If you don't mind gross-ness (not a real word) feel free to continue.

This photo shows a typical small tonsil stone. Here you get an idea about the approximate size and color.



This picture is of a large tonsil stone. Notice the greenish color.



This image shows a tonsil stone inside the mouth. It is at a Korean site and since I am not sure about their copyright laws, I am providing a link to their page.
