Answers:

HELLO,
THEY ARE CALLED TONSILITHS OR TONSIL STONES.
THESE ARE MADE UP OF BACTERIA AND IMMUNE CELLS FROM THE LYMPHATIC SYSTEM.
ARE THEY DANGEROUS?
NOT AT ALL, JUST INCONVENIENT.
HOW CAN I SAFELY CLEAN THEM?
DO NOT PICK AT THEM (TONSILS) WITH OBJECTS. INSTEAD, USE A WATERPIK WATER IRRIGATOR TO SAFELY FLUSH THEM OUT. REMEMBER TO DRINK PLENTY OF WATER TO STAY WELL HYDRATED IN GENERAL.
SO WHAT DOES IT MEAN THAT THEY ARE THERE?
IT MEANS THAT YOUR TONSILS ARE DOING THEIR JOB, AND KEEPING YOU FROM GETTING SEVERE THROAT INFECTIONS.
