Pain between jaw and upper neck

Question

Asked for Male, 26 Years

I have been drinking and smoking heavily on weekends. And right after that I feel pain between upper left side of neck but below jaw. If I touch it or press it harder it doesn't hurt, it only hurts a few times randomly in between. This lasts for two or three days then it recovers and i dont feel any pain. I also have acidity problem with minor granular pharyngitis and I have been eating spicey food uncontrollably. There is no swelling nodes. I need to know is it a serious condition like lymph nodes or Submandibular lymphadenopathy. Because in this case as well the lower part of jaw hurts.
