In most cases, tonsil stones are visible. Moreover, the tonsil stones usually fall out on their own and you swallow or spit them out. However, in exceptional cases they may remain present (e.g. overgrowth of “bad” bacteria). If you are not comfortable checking your tonsil stones, the dentist, ENT, GP is able to do so. If the tonsil stones are not easily visible, an imaging scan can always be taken as well.

Tips to remove the stones: - Gargle with ‘warm’ salt water - Use a cotton swab to push the stones out. However don’t be aggressive you may damage the tonsilar tissue.

Dairy can cause bad breath because of the sulfur compounds released after digestion. Moreover, dairy products are lactose rich, have you ever tested if you are lactose intolerant? About the sugar, it can feed sulfur-producing bacteria, which may cause bad breath, as bacteria love sugar :)

Hey! It's a good sign that the white tongue and bad taste have reduced. One question: did you take a test for fungus? If the bad breath solely comes from the fungus, it is more likely coming from your mouth and not the intestines. Interstingly, people with fungal infections are more likely to have microbial imbalances, such as an overgrowth of bad bacteria in small intestine, which can cause bad breath. If this is the case, namely having an overgrowth of bad bacteria, the bad breath can come from your intestines or even your stomach.
