I had a traumatic extraction 4 days ago. It’s still feeling a bit battered and bruised. Should I be removing this sloughy yellow material or is that supposed to be there. I did wipe some away last night and gently rinsed with corsydol but it seems to of come back. I’m not sure what the white blob it. Any advice please?

If you have no significant pain, then you are past the risk date for a dry socket (usually 3-4 days post-op). What you are looking at is scabby tissue. You don't get dry scabs in a wet mouth. Leave it alone.
