I have had a dull throat/muscle pain in between my chin and the corner of my jaw for a little while now. When I apply pressure to it, it feels like when your muscles are sore after a hard workout. It doesn't affect eating or drinking, but I really notice it every now and then. Any ideas what this could be?

My guess is that it is a swollen lymph node- perhaps your body is fighting an infection (something small that isn't making you noticeably sick, but still needs to be fought off). I would suggest making sure you get lots of rest over the next few days, and possibly take some supplemental vitamins. Drink lots of water too.
Avoid touching/bothering the area as this could increase the inflammation.
If you do all of this and the problem doesn't resolve itself within a week or two, I'd visit your doctor.
