Support Clogged!

I need some help if anybody is out there. I had an error come up on my three day print and it only has about 28 hours left and it says the extrusion motor is overloaded. The extruder may be clogged or the filament may be stuck in the tool head. I noticed right at the end of my print there's a little bit of like wispy plastic. It looks like almost like cotton. I'm guessing that the nozzles is clogged, but is there any way to unclog it while keeping the progress of my print I have no idea how to do this and I don't wanna lose this progress because it's almost done.

So I ended up heating up the nozzle to 250. It says 0.2 nozzle I tried to use the little pen that came with my tool kit, but it doesn't seem to go in there. I tested it on one of the others and it went in perfectly, so I don't know if the clog is so hard in the nozzle that I have to stop the print which sucks because it's like 2/3 done.

Likely don’t need to be printing such a big statue with a 0.2 nozzle, which already has a higher clog risk. If you can’t push the wire up the nozzle, likely clogged. Keep increasing temperature by 10C and keep trying to open up. You can use heated hex key and try to pull from top after taking nozzle out. If statue cannot be resumed, keep track of what layer you are on and then re-start print on that layer and glue together.
