See below.: If you can move our neck without pain ,you are okay. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex.

Probably: It is extremely unlikely you could have seriously injured your neck by simply coughing. If you don't get better or if you start getting pain or numbness down the arm I would not hesitate to be seen.
