What Causes Sore And Painful Throat?
I woke up this morning with a "sore throat" focused more on the right side. It hurts when I swallow though I have not tried eating food yet. I just noticed that on the inside of my jaw, approx. where my wisdom tooth was (removed years ago) I have a small pocket of fluid. It hurts pretty central to that location.
