Small Holes In Throat, Having Strong Smell. How To Remove Them And Solution To Keep Them Clean?
Hi,
I have a little problem with my throat. I have small holes on it, and every now and then it feels up with some sort of white and quite hard thing. Which time to time comes our in pieces, but it also has a very strong smell. I am just looking for some solution to keep these holes clean, or how to get rid of them?
I am 26 years old and I have this issue since a couple of years.
If you could help me with some sort of solution that would be great.
Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Norbert

Hello,
It seems You are refering to the tonsillar crypts.
This is normal structure in the tonsils , these are the depressions .
You can do gargling with hydrogen peroxide 2 tsf in 2 tsf water for gargle 3 times a day after meals.
Take care of the reflux disease ie the gastric reflux specially in night.
These crypts or the depressions will get cleaned on its own and is present in all of us.
In doubt do reply
