Tonsil stones, tonsils. The tonsils (palatine tonsils) are a pair of soft tissue masses located at the rear of the throat (pharynx). Each tonsil is composed of tissue similar to lymph nodes, covered by pink mucosa (like on the adjacent mouth lining). Running through the mucosa of each tonsil are pits, called crypts.
These can be figured out through bad breath or felling pain while swallowing. There might be other symptoms like throat closing or tighten, metallic taste or choking. Generally, adults face these problems and in kids it is really rare. Tonsil Stones are generally white or yellowish in color.
