I have these bumps in my throat...right at the front, just after my mouth """ends""". Sometimes I have the feeling that something is stuck back there (as someone else mentioned in another post that i saw) and i have actually FOUND something in there. Eeker its like these little white things...they stink and they look kind of like a little ball of soap or maybe something like that. every now and then this happens. not very often. but when i get that feeling that something is back there i scrape it w/a toothbrush and it bleeds but sometimes i get """it""" out and the feeling subsides. am i making something out of nothing or am i possibly in need of a doctor's visit? someone please help me. im confused, lost, and dont know who to talk to about this. :help:

Hello Sherri

It sounds like tonsil stones.

Try a Google search for tonsil stones and be amazed at how common they are, and the different things people on the various message boards have tried. Too much to post and it would rob you of the chance to explore Big Grin .

Let me know how you get on Smiler !

Best wishes
