Actually, it is merely food particles stuck in your son's tonsillar crypts, over which calcium deposition has taken place over time forming tonsillolith or Tonsil Stones. Solution: Laser resurfacing of the faucial tonsils under GA Here a LASER beam vapourizes about 3-5 mm of the surface of the tonsils. This reduces the pits in the tonsils into a saucer shape, so food cannot get stuck there. If you are able to, come down to my clinic.
