What Causes Painful Bump Above Adam S Apple?

I have a bouncy ball size maybe bigger bump above my adams apple. I read online that it could be some kind of cyst so I put acne medicine on the area. My throat hurts when I swallow and it moves up and down as I swallow. Should I be worried about this?

This one is a thyroid colloid cyst and application of medicine over the skin would not help much!

Please go for USG with an FNAC test to relieve your tension.
