Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The pain in the tongue, throat and on turning to the side can be because of the calcified stylohyoid ligament or it can be because of glossopharyngeal neuralgia. Nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. You need to take a radiograph like OPG to confirm the diagnosis. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, we can treat accordingly.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
