Foreign body, nose.: If any person who has a forgein body trapped in the nose; gentle blowing is ok, but don’t go picking there, because this can jam the object further into the nasal passage, or cause bleeding and other troubles. Definitely see your ear, nose, and throat doctor or your general physician as soon as possible.
