Tonsilloliths can only occur in recurrent tonsillitis. More often than not, the discharge of pus from the tonsils results in the coughing up of a rice-like foreign body with a distinct odor. During the attack period, antibacterial agents and glucocorticosteroids should be used. In between attacks, oral hygiene can be maintained by rinsing the mouth with mouthwash and using herbal tablets to clear the throat. At the same time, eating more fresh vegetables and fruits can clear the throat, detoxify heat and regulate phlegm, and are rich in vitamins, which can strengthen the body’s resistance. If the symptoms are more serious, tonsillectomy is needed, which is a radical cure, especially for patients with recurrent tonsillitis.
