  1. this is kind of gross, but sometimes when i'm bench pressing and
    straining especially hard, i will cough up a chunk of white, fatty
    tissue about 5-7mm in diameter. this doesn't occur often, maybe once a
    month. i'm guessing they are coming from my tonsils. doesn't really
    bother me, just seems weird and was wondering if anyone might have an
    explanation for it...

  2. I can't offer any explanation or help... just wanted to mention that
    I've been experiencing exactly what you describe for a few months now.
    The only difference is that I'm not aware of any connection to bench
    pressing or any other straining that I do. It just happens infrequently
    and unpredictably, in my case.

    Tuberculosis.

    Maybe not. Why not take your loogie to a doctor and show him?

    Are you insinuating that we're not capable of diagnosing this problem here?
    I am offended Cohen. And hurt too.

    These medical types screw everything up.

    How is a self respecting psychic supposed to make a good living if he keeps
    sending every one to the doctor? 🙂

    I can't help, but thought I'd offer this peer-reviewed (or maybe not)

    Exactly! misc.fitness.weights is the only place to go for sound medical
    advise!

    It hurts that nobody trusts us.

    These are most likely tonsiliths. If you google the term, you will find lots
    of info. They are accumulations of food debris in crevices in your tonsils
    and can lead to halitosis, as they are foul smelly little things. Ask your
    friends if they have noticed halitosis and if they say "yes", you have the
    culprit. Removing the tonsils is one option and will get rid of this stuff
    permanently, but it's surgery and has its own risks. Good luck.

    Spot reduction for tonsil fat.
