Tonsil stones is the build up of food which can become lodged in the back of the throat, and then bacteria feeds off them. They are small white lumps which one can feel in the back of the throat and can cause discomfort. One can gently use a cotton bud and try to push them out, try gargling with salt and warm water or visit the doctor.
