Hi, there! I am a 20 year old female with severe health anxiety and I was wondering if you could help me out!
I frequently get tonsil stones (if anybody else on here gets them, you will know how gross they are!) and remove them about every 2-3 days with a q-tip. Today, I was removing some, and my tonsils started bleeding a fair amount! I wasn't spewing blood or anything but there was a tad more than normal (there is usually a tiny bit of blood from me roughly poking and prodding at my tonsils) and my tonsils/chest (maybe lungs) ached a little too. Am I in danger of my throat swelling up, or me having an internal bleed, or bleeding out from my tonsils? I know this sounds like silly stuff but I am so anxious! Any insight would be so appreciated. Blessings to everybody! Thank you so much.

No danger... probably just a bigger stone that was stuck a bit more is all. The fact it stopped and you're posting about it proves all is well.
