Scabs

I am 20 years old and am on my 4th day of recovery after a tonsillectomy. I had a lot more energy today, had less pain and was able to get down some rice. However, I feel like there are huge "chunks" of something stuck in the back of my throat. Is this the scabs starting to fall off? I did have toast today but I chewed it very well and drank a lot of water with it so it was "soggy" not "scratchy" when I swallowed it. I'm a little worried that my scabs are falling off too early. I haven't done anything to force them to come off (i.e.: coughing purposely, picking at them...). Any advice would be great. Thank you!
