Crowding: Due to the position of your wisdom teeth many complications can occur. Throbbing from infection is not uncommon. Visit your dentist and have evaluated.

Definitely, yes: There is a noticeable, distinct, persistent throbbing, pulsatile pain in the jaw, often radiating toward the ear and forward along the jaw to cause other teeth to ache. See your dentist for eval.
