Tonsil stones. Again. It seems a common problem without an easy solution. But there is one.

This man had bad tonsil stone trouble. A year after laser tonsillectomy under local anaesthetic spray the right tonsil is fine. The left has a slight bad taste but much better. However the picture shows the left side will need a second procedure, as not only is there an obvious tonsil stone, but all around it there are small holes trapping food and causing a bad taste. 25% of patients do need a second procedure under local anaesthetic spray.
