I feel your pain. I too have/get tonsil stones.
The sore throat is most likely from you manipulating your tonsils to get the previous stones out. Because the stones themselves are not bacteria...you would not have a sore throat from an infection. if your tonsils do in fact become infected...they would be oozing pus and not just stones. many people have tonsil stones...get used to getting them out yourself...why? Because a tonsillectomy at an adult age is one of the worst surguries to endure.
And yes, there may be more stones that you do not see...but until they come near the top, they are not ready to come out.
Don't dig too deep or your throat will definitely be sore.
If you are new to removing stones...do not worry.
The first few times of removal are slightly painstaking...after that it will simply become something you do once a month like it is nothing unique and the pain will go away when you stop messing with them constantly.
