Blocked salivary gland.

The shoulder pain was,muscle. But it comes and goes now. The,gland pain kinda feels,like the pain you feel when you have a,sore throat.. They said it's nothing,to do with surgery?!

Maybe,yours,is,allergies

That is exactly what it feels like in my throat! All of a sudden. I never had allergies before but I hope it is just a new allergy. Thanks so much for responding ;)

Yea it all of the,sudden went away and it helps,when I eat sour things like lemons. But if it doesn't go away get it checked out.

Yea mine did to but came back.. just look out for it.. I got dry mouth with it to.. it's possibly lack of salivary production they said, so it pools in your gland and causes pain.. if that's what it is..,?
