When I got my tongue pierced there was swelling and soreness, also in the back of the throat. That could be mistaken for throat pain. Maybe it's just a cold.

This can be cause by swallowing a lot of blood, or even more saliva than ususal. If you look in the mirror and it looks red then best see the person who pierced you, more than likely they have encountered it before and can tell you what to do.
