How Can A Pill Stuck In The Sinus Cavity Be Dislodged?

Hi. I have a pill that went up into my sinus cavity and is now past my tonsils. I can feel it with my finger and my eye is alittle swollen and my ear hurts on the side the pill is stuck in. It has been like this for two days. I tried flushing my nose with warm salt water and even made myself throw up, trying anything to get it unstuck. Any suggestions?
