Examination: Sorry, "very corner" is not an exact anatomic description. Soreness often means infection (tooth or gum/bone). Please see your Dentist for an evaluation. Referral to one or more specialists may be in order.

Visit the dentist: for complete dental evaluation to rule out dental pain and possible referral to orofacial pain specialist for TMJ and facial pain management.

Evaluation: Your best bet is to be evaluated by a local dentist. Without radiographs or an examination, it is impossible to diagnose what might be the problem. All the best...
