What if you swallow a tonsil stone?

Answer 1

According to my doctor, it depends on the size. He said tiny ones don't really matter and you wont even realize you did inhale it. Sometimes, though, when you have ones the size of peas, you can feel it go down. Some may get stuck ad you'll have to chug down water. He said usually they go down easily, but he's had a few cases where they get stuck. I really think that's rare for them to get stuck, but he said he'd have to dig them out of the persons throat (basically surgery) and pull it out. Nothing serious and I feel like it's very strange for people to have their tonsil stones stuck. So don't worry, no big deal. Just kind of disgusting.
