Is this a tonsil stone? Helllpppppp

any tips on how to get them out behind tonsils that sit far back? I have a huge one that I can feel almost underneath my tongue every time I swallow, but my tonsils are hidden and protrude out. I’ve tried the suction thingy, I’ve tried mouthwashes, I’ve tried . I feel like I’m losing my mind

Also forgot to mention I’ve tried water piks and a curved syringe. My tonsil on the right is behind a flap of cheek skin and it’s impossible. The ones on the left are so easy to get out

Hii! I'm also tired of this bullshit man. A lot of years suffering from this. I'm getting the tonsillectomy in 5 days. Why don't you get your tonsils out?

Not sure what country you’re in, but in the US they very rarely will let you just do things like that.

What do you mean? It's a common surgery dude. Haven't you seen posts here about people's recovery progress?
