Do tonsil stones have to cause bad nasal odor?

Hello everyone,
For the past few months I have been debating on whether tonsil stones or LPR is the cause for bad breath. I have a barium swallow in a few days to see how significant my reflux is and hiatal hernia.
Depeing on exam results from a PH monitoring exam as well, I will decide if a tonsillectomy is right for me. I believe there is a lot of tonsil stones that I might not be able to see behind my tonsils, but my question is do tonsil stones have to cause nasal odor? Because nasal odor is not a problem for me (or at least that I know of) I think it is mostly just mouth odor.
Thank you everyone!
