Extra points, for effort!!!
A patient had their tonsils & adenoids removed at age 10
The patient is now 18 and having trouble with a sore throat, they check with a flashlight and a mirror at the inside of their throat.
They have what looks like a regrown tonsil, with a small tonsil stone. (As seen, circled in red)
Question number 1
What is outlined in blue? Identify. If what is circled in red is a regrown tonsil, what is located further in the back? (The patient looks as if to have another tonsil stone on what is circled in blue)
Question number 2
Can outdoor allergies cause tonsil stones to appear? As well as sore throats?
Question number 3
Are tonsil stones serious?
