Suggest Treatment For Throat Pain After Swallowing Bottle Cap

Um earlier today I had a small water bottle cap in my mouth while riding my bike, I know stupid but I had breathed and it flew to the back of my throat and whithout thinking I accidentally swallowed it, it was making me gag so I tries to swallow if and get it down but I couldn t breath, only through my nose, so I made myself throw up and I was fine a little shacky and scared but ok, but the problem is now that my throat hurts when like saliva is swallowed, well anything when I swallow but it doesn t sting when I eat it is almost like a weird normal sore throughout and I just want to make sure if that s ok an if it will go away
