View allI've been having some trouble with my throat over the past year. It started with it getting really dry at night, even though I'm drinking a lot of water. Then, a few weeks ago, these solid white sticky stones started forming near my tonsils. They smelled really bad, but I managed to remove them a couple of times using a toothbrush and cotton stick when they got to about 0.25cm. But now, it feels like there's a bigger stone deeper in my throat that I just can't reach or see, even with a mirror. Gargling with salt water and coughing hasn't helped at all, and it's so uncomfortable when I eat or drink. I'm not sure if it's the same kind of stone growing back or something else entirely. What do you think it could be, and what can I do about it?

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?

Or maybe suggest a nearby doctor I can visit to get it taken care of? I live in Palava City, Dombivili East, Thane, 421204.
