Squeezing tightness on one side of the neck and jaw is most often muscular or referred from the jaw joint, teeth, or acid reflux, especially if it changes with posture, chewing, or meals.
However, at 26 with obesity, cardiac pain must be excluded first if the tightness comes with exertion, sweating, breathlessness, or radiates to the arm; in that case seek emergency care immediately.
A basic ECG, blood pressure, sugar and lipid check are worth doing for reassurance.
Continue the reflux medication as advised, avoid late heavy meals, and use warm compresses for the neck muscles.
Please book a consultation so the pattern can be examined and the exact cause confirmed.

First get your ECG done. Coz sometimes heart attack (MI) present with jaw pain alone.
If that's not the case ruleout dental causes. Dental caries or gingivitis can also cause squeezing sensation in jaw.
