Tonsil stone/abscess?!

Has anyone had a tonsil stone that seeped puss? I have been growing this for a few weeks and assumed it was a tonsil stone but just noticed that it is seeping puss. Should I do anything about it?! I don't feel poorly or anything...

Great photo.

Have you tried prodding it with a cotton bud to see if it pops out?

Birthdayhat · 17/05/2022 19:47

It seems to be draining slowly, when I use a cotton bud it just wipes a bit of puss off but nothing dramatic - I can't do too much without gagging!

I find tonsil stones pop out easier if you push up from underneath, maybe that'll pop it out?

Gargle with warm salty water, really gargle for ages then prod it and come back and show us a photo!!

Looks like you've got a stone on the other tonsil too....

Birthdayhat · 17/05/2022 20:54

It has pretty much drained already, not much poking required! Still a bit swollen. I have since read about cysts and it probably wasn't puss but mucous instead. Weird!

The other side needs doing too!!

Birthdayhat · 17/05/2022 21:15

Well as requested I've poked something out of the other side although it wasn't hard so I don't know if it was a tonsil stone, are they hard? Hopefully up to standard now 😁

First one = abscess
Second one = tonsil stone

We don't want a pic of a clear throat, we need a pic of what you poked out 😭😭😭😭😭

Hello, just a few weeks ago i've noticed the same thing in my throat next to my right tonsil..when i popped it out there was something like a mucus inside it
.. now after few weeks it is showing again . Have you seen any doctor? Do you know what was it?

Marie1224 · 06/09/2023 08:20

Sylaa94 · 21/01/2024 08:29
