Tonsil stones occur in the superior tonsillar fossa, where long-term obstruction, poor drainage of secretions, and accumulation of cheese-like material lead to the deposition of inorganic salts such as calcium and magnesium, which are not easily dissolved. The core can be a small foreign body, shed epithelial cells or bacteria. Stones can also occur around ciliated mycelia. A tonsil stone weighing 6.4 g has been reported. Stones scattered in the lymphatic tissue of the pharyngeal wall are small, soft and friable; tonsil stones are larger and hard as stones. Stones buried in the submucosa have a nodular surface. The mucosal surface can be eroded by pressure, and pus fistulas occur, often causing adhesions between the superior tonsillar fossa and the tongue and palate arch. The symptoms are like chronic tonsillitis. If there is septic infection around the stone, there may be sore throat and reflex ear pain; in severe cases, there may be difficulty in swallowing, slurred speech, increased salivation, and restricted mouth opening. In case of infection, bad breath is often felt. Sometimes the stone may break out from the superior tonsillar fossa or the tongue and palate arch. If the inflammation around the stone is caused by the stone, local treatment can be done by applying local ointment: applying the medicine directly to the lower jaw opposite to the tonsils to clear the heat and detoxify the toxins, reduce swelling and disperse nodules. Commonly used, such as tonsillitis ointment (former name: “tonsillopharyngeal elimination”, “tonsillitis elimination”). It is a purely traditional Chinese medicine patch, which has a direct effect on chronic tonsillitis, and has a therapeutic effect when it is acute, and a clearing effect when it is not.
