trouble swallowing laying flat on back

I just had surgery on tuesday...

I noticed last night laying on my back at an incline or even sometimes just laying back on the couch I have trouble swallowing. Its not too bad... But there has been a couple of times where it kinda has me worried.

Also I can feel something is inside me and when I cough, burp, or move certains ways I can feel what is inside me? Is that normal also?

Will it all go away in more time?

I don't think it's ever a good time to try to swallow laying down...I was always told to not eat while laying down...and to sit up after eating for a little while too...as for the feeling something inside of you I have no idea...I haven't had anything like that happen to me
