Yet so many ppl recommend me to remove my tonsil

I was like if it not serve any purpose why does it been there at first place?

Hi guys,

Just wanna share my experience and unleash my anger about my simple medical experience with some specialist.

I had a simple and small "tonsil stones", i can see with my bare eye, but i could not get it out myself, so i went to Sunway Medical to seek consultation and treatment with one of their very re-known ENT Specialist.

During the consultation, the ENT confirmed is tonsil stone, but refused to remove it for me. Instead, he is asking me to do Tonsillectomy (in plain english, surgical removal of my tonsil). Quoted me RM8000, and keep asking me to do it. I requested him :why don't you just remove my tonsil stone first, then i decide the op in other time. But he refused. I end up walking out Sunway Medical with a RM209 medical bill without a real treatment. WTF.

Yesterday, i went to see general doctor in USJ, show him my tonsil stone, the general doctor took out a metal stick from his tool box, inserted to my mouth, and get the tonsil stone out in just 5 seconds. I walked out the clinic with a happy face and RM25 medical bill.

I just wondering what the hell the ENT has done. I have been thinking they are more interested to do lot of surgical op to get good money.

This is very unprofessional.

Yet, he is so famous in USJ and Sunway area.

Tonsil stones can easily be removed on your own - either you use a long object like a chopstick and apply pressure, or you wiggle around your tongue. Gargle with mouthwash first to loosen them and it should come out easily.

As far as the specialist's recommendation goes, removing your tonsils will prevent future irritation from tonsil stones. However, the tonsils exist for a reason - they catch dirt and prevent further infections such as sore throat from occurring. The worst tonsil stones do is give you bad breath, and you can work around this by just practicing proper oral care. You don't need to have them removed unless you regularly get tonsillitis.

Last time I YOLO and use water bidet blast water straight at it. Not sure is the water dislodged it or the subsequent choking and coughing

Tonsillectomy
A tonsillectomy is the surgical removal of tonsils. This procedure may be done using a scalpel, laser, or coblation device.

Performing this surgery for tonsil stones is controversial. Doctors who recommend tonsillectomy for tonsil stones tend to use it only for severe, chronic cases, and after all other methods have been tried without success.

lulz, must be the gag reflex.
I did tried the DIY method using chopstick, plastic spoon, the buttend of my tooth brush, but its easier said than done. The gag reflex is there for a reason. I do plan on getting waterpik. A lot of people recommend it for:
1) self cleaning for the teeth
2) works wonders removing tonsil stones via controlled water jet

Maybe he recommended the op because there are many crypts on your tonsils that can be a nidus to stone formation.
