Hi XXXXXX,
Tanks for writing in to Healthcare Magic.
The soreness of jaw, ear and neck of recent onset is indicative of some pathology in the tonsillar region of throat, most likely a tonsillitis or there may be local ulceration causing pain and swelling.
You should get a local examination by a local physician or ENT doctor and follow the advise.
Meanwhile you should brush teeth twice a day and do saline gargles after every meal.
follow by Chlorhexidine gargles and do not eat anything till 2 hours following.
I hope the advise would be helpful for you.
