The approximate cost of removing tonsil stones is about $50. Tonsil stones are tonsil secretions that cannot be discharged from the body due to prolonged stimulation of spicy diet, chronic tonsil inflammation, and lack of attention to oral hygiene by the patient. Crystals form at the mouth of the upper tonsillar crypt, leading to impaction, which can cause symptoms related to tonsil swelling, sore throat, and bad breath. When examined, the tonsils can be seen to be unilaterally enlarged, and at the mouth of the upper tonsillar crypt, there are yellowish or whitish crystals embedded, and when the tonsils are squeezed, the embedded material will fall off, and the squeeze is hard and accompanied by a foul smell. Surgical treatment can be done to remove the tonsils once and for all.
