One corner of my throat hurts. i've monitored it for 18 hours and it hasn't gotten worse. i'm questioning if i cut that area from hard food?

Possibly.: Since I wasn't in the right place or the right time when it happened, I can't say for sure, but, yes, you may have swallowed something hard enough to scratch your throat. It should start feeling better soon. Meanwhile stick with soft foods and cool liquids. If it gets worse or if you get other symptoms (difficulty swallowing, swollen glands, fever etc.), you should get checked.
