Hello,
It is not possible unless she accidentally kept it in the nasal cavity. Rarely possible with nasal regurgitation while intake in cranial nerve palsy patients. It may be dried mucous.
Please consult your ENT specialist he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
