Tonsils are the part of our body's immunity, they are the "sample" of bacteria and viruses that enter the body through mouth or nose at the risk of their own infection. At some times, they become more of a liability than an asset and may even trigger airway obstruction or repeated bacterial infections. The causes of tonsil stones are:
1. environmental toxin.
2. sinus infections.
3. allergy.
4. stress.
5. alcohol, and many more.
The tonsil stones should be removed. Natural/self treatments for Tonsil Stones
1. gargle with warm water with salt or non-alcoholic mouth wash.
2. clean the tongue with a tongue cleaner.
3. drink adequate water to prevent mouth dryness and halitosis (bad breath).
People may remove tonsil stones by themselves by reading the e-book about tonsil stones which is inexpensive and really worth to buy!!: http://goo.gl/QIlx8d

They are actually coming from the holes in your tonsils. They are called Tonsil Stones or Tonsiliths. Lots of people have them. Bacteria cause them. I've never been to a doc who could/would help me with them. I dig them out, but it hurts. I, also, gargle with a bacteria killing mouthwash. Antibiotics do not help with this. It is not an infection. I've found the bacteria in bread and milk make mine worse, so sometimes I just avoid those foods. It doesn't have anything to do with calcium.

I had to have my tonsils removed because of this embarrassing problem a few years ago.
They were actually rottening and causing these hollow divot things in the back of my throat where "decay" would collect and gave me cronic halitosis.
I would get in there ang dig them out sometimes and WOW, they're even stinkier if you can get them out!
I know, I know, gross right?
But since my tonsilectomy.. I've had no more problems!
I would suggest seeing an ear, nose, & throat specialist!

They are not an infection. Just about every one who has tonsils has them. They are tonsiloliths. Here is a link that explains it well. http://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2010/09/wh...
