This morning i felt a small lump on my upper neck by my throat ... it also hurt a little bit. what would cause that?

Not sure: Without getting an exam, there is no way to to tell exactly what the lump is/was. It may be a lymph node which are commonly found in the neck area and can become inflamed with infections, both viral and bacterial. If it persists, see a dr. For an eval, best wishes.
