Are you allergic?: If it is in your nose get a q tip and remove it. If you think you have swallowed it or have been coughing it up you may have aspirated it. If it is just a few specs remove what you can from your nose and see if you feel fine. If by morning you are not better call your doctor to check your lungs. If you think you accidentally swallowed it , take maalox to protect your stomach. Do not panick.
