Hi.
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

As per your complain tongue soreness can occur due to a number of common causes like Nutritional Deficiency of Iron and Vitamin B12, physical injury caused by any sharp toorh, acid reflux, stress, hormonal imbalances etc.
Learning wisdom tooth has not commonly seen to cause sore tongue while pain in ear and throat can be a radiating pain from wisdom tooth in case if the gum flap over wisdom tooth gets inflamed or there is deep decay in tooth or if it is leaning it can create pressure over the adjacent molar roots cause pain..

Nothing to worry, consult an Oral Surgeon and get evaluated and he can advise full mouth x Ray known as ORTHOPANTOMOGRAM (OPG) as well as blood investigation like Vitamin B12 levels, Haemoglobin %, blood sugar, hormonal profile etc..
Treatment will be planned accordingly..
Extraction of the wisdom tooth should be done..
As of now for tongue soreness gargle with numbing mouthwash, do cold water rinses and suck ice..
You can also take Ibuprofen for reducing soreness and pain..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
