Floaters are usually normal & harmless - they are due to clumps in jelly like substance in the back chamber of eye.
You should keep moving eye up & down & sideways to move the jelly behind the eye so the floaters will move also.
If you notice any sudden inc in no of floatres & also if they are associated with flashing lights then you must see eye specialist as soon as possible.
