Suggest Treatment For Pain While Swallowing

I had a head injury two weeks ago and it caused a lot of stress to my neck. Last Wednesday I had a deep tissue massage which seemed to help my neck. However the next morning I work up with a lot of mucus and it was difficult for me to swallow. I went to my doctor 5 days ago and he gave me cough syrup however the pain I have when I swallow is still there.
