I’ve recently discovered the reason my right tonsil has been swollen. Tonsil stones 🤮. Now that I’ve figured out how to pop them out with a q-tip I can’t stop removing them even tho it’s killing my throat. My throat is so sore now and it’s driving me insane. But I can’t just leave those nasty things in there. Ugh does anyone else pop there’s out on their own? Is it normal for the throat to hurt a bit afterward. Should I stop and leave them alone?
