Tonsillectomy

Tomorrow morning I will be having my tonsils removed. Prior to that happening, I decided to take a little video of them. If you’re not interested in seeing the back of my throat and reading details (but really, who isn’t??), you might want to skip this.

In the tonsil on the left (my right tonsil), there is a visible tonsilolith (a white lump). Tonsiloliths are a chronic problem I have, and results in recurring infections. This is the primary reason I am having my tonsils removed.
