Pain from tongue can radiate from to the ear or down the jaw to the neck. These are the places to where the pain from tongue can radiate because of a common nerve supply. What you have got removed will be tested by a pathologist which will give better picture of what we are dealing with. So, relax and wait till the final report. Regards
