What Causes Frequent Tonsil Stones With Bubbles Near Tonsils?

I tend to get tonsil stones. Tonight It felt like I had a tonsil stone but I only got a little bit out. Now I noticed I have little pink bubble looking things near my tonsils, they almost look like little pimples. I'm starting to get scared, I want to know what it is!!

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

As per your query as you tend to get frequent tonsil stones there is an increased probability of throat infection..
The red small bubbles that you are seeing in your throat can be due to infection in throat causing Granular Pharyngitis..
You can take a short course of antibiotics like Levofloxacin, do warm saline gargles and take honey and lemon tea..
Do steam inhalation..
To prevent Tonsil stones from recurring do warm saline gargles after meals and always gargle with water after eating anything..
Limit the intake of milk products as they are high in calcium and promote more calcification and stone formation..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
