Hello!Welcome to HCM.
You did not mention your age and if your wisdom tooth eruption.
There is a infection in the wisdom tooth.I suggest you to get a x-ray done related to the wisdom tooth.infection and pain can spread to the throat as well.
Do warm saline water gargling twice daily.See your dentist for a clinical inspection.
