📌 Key Takeaways:

Tonsil stones (tonsilloliths) are formed from trapped food particles, bacteria, and debris in the tonsil’s natural crevices (called crypts).

Common symptoms include bad breath, throat discomfort, sore throat, and sometimes ear pain due to shared nerve supply.

They are usually harmless and resolve on their own, though they can be unpleasant.

Maintain good oral hygiene, drink plenty of water, and gargle after meals to prevent recurrence.

If tonsil stones keep recurring and affect daily life, tonsillectomy (surgical removal) is a permanent solution, but not necessary for everyone.
