I have tonsil crypt's pretty bad with constant tonsil stones/white stuff present. They often get very red, swollenSwollen glands and slightly painfulPainful menstrual periods. My question is does anyone know if tonsil stones have anything to do with geographic tongueTongue tie? I get that on a regularRegular insulin basis as well and it is pretty distinct with often sensitivity to spicy foods. Also I occasionally get cold sores on the outside of my mouth. Are any of these mouth issues related?
I first got tonsil stones two years ago I could feel something on back of tongue when I stuck my tongue out I could see what looked like teeth! I was grossed out, wowed and also worried as naturally working in ENT I thought it looked like cancer,
I showed the doc at work! he said just the shape of my tonsils, I generally poke them out, use mouthwash gargle freguently, he said they will do tonsilectomy for this but im too scared. although I do quite fancy two weeks of work, but not the extreme pain that will acompany it.
I'm just looking for non-surigical treatment. tonsilstones.net
I too find that sometimes I get lots of stones as a result of diet, scatchy scrapey foods do prevent and slow down tonsil **** bulid up! I also watch my tongue if looks to be getting white I know the filthy tonsil stones will follow!!!!!!!!!
sorry yes I definately think tonsil stones could make worst irritate your geographic tongue, (DEF have them out) because your tonsils are home to bacteria and old food that shouldnit be there.
I also work in ENT,
no its not related to coldsores or geographic tongue,
