Kindly elaborate your issue. Are you referring to recurrent episodes of tonsillitis for 2 years? And presence of tonsil stones?
One thing that you can do is to maintain good throat hygeine. This includes gargles after meals. Its better to avoid very cold stuff.
For consideration of surgery, more details will be needed, like the picture, frequency and duration of acute episodes etc.
