You may have tonsilliths. From what i understand they are trapped food particles in your tonsills, and they smell.....they are white or cream colored chunks that will start to come out one of these days. I have them and have had forever. Some days are worse than others. Doctors seem to think they are no big deal. I rinse with Listerine all the time to try to get rid of them ...they are disgusting!
i agree with tammyin, except i've heard them called tonsil stones.
I have had this really foul smell coming from my throat for almost three months now. I have seen an ENT who told me I have a chronic sinus for which he prescribed a lot of meds including antibiotics but the smell is still there. I have done all the home remedies and nothing seem to help. IF any one have had this problem and have been fixed please help.
i can feel something stuck when I swallow. When i was straining lifting weights, a crescent -shaped piece of food came up. I often have sneezed it up to. The smell is so bad people move away from me. Ent doctor visits are a waste of time it seems as they dont see my problem as urgent. The only way you can get rid of it is "dry it out," by not drinking so that the throat gets parched, and the particle gets brittle and it can be coughed out.
I have also been to a ENTspecialist and they seen nothing out of the norm.I decided to check my throat really good with a small instrument, which I steralize when I use, anyway I have found pockets hidden so far back in my throat and under a lyer of tissue. The only reason I found it is because I dig with this insrument.Hope this helps.
i have this same problem and it is really disgusting and irritating. I only recently started to have this problem and I am consumed by it because I detest bad breathe and this causes it.

I've been experiencing a fowl taste from the bak of my throat and also feels as if I have something lodged that won't budge...which has caused a mild soreness n my throat. I usually cough it up but this one is stuck. I've tried lookin nside my throat and brushin my tongue as far bak as I can brush and gargling w/ listerine but same feelin. Has any1 experienced this n if so wat has been done? My tonsills were removed at the age of 5.
Hi there!Have u found a solution?? It has been holding my life up for a long time now, Please respond to me and that would be a blessing
