I have tonsil stones, how do I get them out?I hate feeling like there is something in the back of my throat, it's maddening! I tried massaging my neck and gargling salt water. I couldn't manually get them out! What do I do? (besides go to the etn doctor) Thanks!

I know what you mean about maddening. It feels like a popcorn kernel stuck in your throat! When I have tonsil stones, I use my fingers to pop them out. Did you try moving the flap of tonsil skin back then pushing with your finger or a q-tip? I also find it easier with a mini flashlight to shine into my mouth so I can see where I'm going to get it out. If all else fails, you can try diluting vinegar with water and gargling with it. Vinegar breaks up the tonsil stone.
Good luck! I hate it when I can't get a tonsil stone out.
