Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you are having bad breath along with stuffy feel in nose throat which is due to you have tonsillitis which occurs secondary to bacterial or viral infection . It could be due to tonsil stones as well. You need not to worry about it. You should consult an Otolaryngologist and get evaluated. Take antibiotics, anti-inflammatory painkiller like Ibuprofen and warm saline gargles will be advised to you. Maintain proper oral hygiene. You can avoid the bad smell by gargling with a mint flavored mouthwash. Chew sugar free chewing gums for stimulating saliva flow. You can go for manual removal of stones as well as surgical removal. Visit dentist as well for cleaning of oral cavity once.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
