Would you use this term for throat ache?
Yes, you can say “Halsschmerzen” or “Halsweh”.
If you want to be super specific about the back of the mouth where the food leaves the mouth and the nasal airways meet the rest, that’s “der Rachen”. That’s what the doctor looks at if they look into your mouth to check.
