Does anyone know what that yellow crud that gets stuck in your tonsils is?

Man I have had a sore thoat for tjhe last few days and I hacked up this odd looking thing that was yellow and kinga looked like grey matter LOL.

But it came from my tonsils.

I know yellow  means infection  but this stuff is nasty.

It's not really the product of an infection. I don't know the english word but I think that it is normally secreted by your tonsils when they are agressed.


Anyway, it's a symptom that your system is fighting bacteria/microbs/viruses, quite frequent and not alarming.

BARF! Dude, get to a Doctor. You have tonsilitis and they are not draining. That's dried up puss and scab.

I repeat... BARFFFFFFFFFFFFF!

Talking about yellow crud makes me wonder:

I have been suffering from severe abdominal cramps and pain and sometimes have bloody diarrhea. Every once in a while I have a severe urgency to have a bowel movement.  I have had a persistent fever, and have lost my appetite, so I have lost a lot of weight.  I feel worn out; tired all the time, and my wife thinks I look anemic.

Aah, prob’ly nothin’.

Simple, too much fiber in your diet. Eat LOTS of rare red meat and cheese.
