Hello,
Thanks for your query.
From description it appears that there could be minor apthous ulcers or apthous pharyngitis developed under the tongue.
This can cause radiating pain to the surrounding throat and neck too.There could be gland enlargement too.
I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
