Strain? : It is good that Dr did an exam & thought normal- likely this means no swollen lymph nodes or abscesses /infections. Tenderness could be related to a muscle strain or perhaps something deeper down. You could try warm compressed & ibuprofen but if not improving in a week or so I recommend recheck by Dr & possibly further testing.
