Suggest Remedy For Pain And Swelling On Spine

Mid back to the right of my spine; pain & swollen. I first noticed bout a week ago Saturday. I thought I might ve injured my back from my back excersizes I did that morning but didn t feel pain til later in the evening. Thougy it might ve been sore muscles cause it feels stuff & tight with movement. The Thursday before I caught a cold that consisted of a bad cough I couldn t sleep for at least three days. The pain slowly went away but then the following Thursday (last thursday) I felt the pain again & the pain on a scale of 1-10 10 Being the highest hurts like a 10 when I move my right shoulder back or for an example putting my arm on opposite car seat to reverse & looking back it even turning my torso to the right. Also when I cough, inhale deeply, & what s freaking me out the most is everytime I drink any beverage hot or cold, water or juice, a second after I swallow it s as if I feel it going down inmy back & it hurts & is very uncomfortable, awkward. But not when I eat. I was going to see my primary doctor for my terrible cough & sore throat that persisted for a week & a half but the cough finally went away well it isn t as severe & not every 10 seconds. Also tht area on my back is swollen. Should I see a doctor? Any clue to what this might be?
