First of all, you made the mistake of LOOKING!

My ENT warned me under NO circumstances should you look at your throat. Nasty result of cauterizing (burning) the wound. But since it's too late -- drink drink drink lots of water -- not to cool, not too warm. Keep your throat moist. Chew on ice chips, popscicles. Eventually -- after a couple of weeks the scabs will come off. You don't want them to come off too soon, otherwise you could start bleeding.
