Coughing Fit, Severe Throat Pain Below Adam S Apple, Soreness, Small Bump, Hurts While Swallowing. Suggestions?

I had a bad coughing fit while In was bent over, it resulted in a severe pain in my throat slightly below my Adams Apple on the right. The pain originally hurt from the top of my throat to the top of my collarbone on the right side. Now, there's a soreness and a small bump that feels like cartilage or something. It's sore to the touch and hurts swallowing, tilting my he'd back, and sometimes talking/ or changing voice pitches.
