My tonsil holes are pretty large and keep trapping white stones. An ENT specialist suggested a tonsillectomy, but I'm really hoping to avoid surgery. Are there any other treatments or ways to manage this without going under the knife?

I'm experiencing this ringing noise in my left ear. It was clogged before, but after taking medication, the blockage cleared up. Still, the ringing persists. Also, whenever I open my mouth, there's this clicking sound from the left side of my jaw. Could this be something related to my ear or jaw? And should I see an ENT specialist or a different kind of doctor for this issue?
