What if a bug or nat went up my nose ? any danger ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Brain-eating insects that enter by the nose or ears are the stuff of fantasy. The creature will find its way out, or if it dies, it will get swallowed or blown out. Very rarely, a physician may need to extract it. If you feel okay, stop worrying.
