Have Injury In Throat Due To Swallowing Hard Food

I quickly swallowed an extra large piece of baked potato. Realizing that the potato was much more stiff than I anticipated, I had to swallow extra hard to get it down. Unfortunately, my throat must have suffered an injury because now it is constantly in mild pain. What is the best course of action to have the wound heal up faster?
