I’m unsure if my tonsils look okay, they have large holes in them which get bits stuck in sometimes and hurt when trying to remove them

This is Dr SATYA KIRAN, ENT doctor from Hyderabad, India. Those irregular crypts on tonsils may be filled in with food materials at times. That condition  is called KERATOSIS TONSILS. Mouth gargles after every food intake is advised. Do not try to remove urself as it may tend to bleed. If severe condition required Tonsillectomy surgery.
