No, I don't think so. Not without any context, at least. You can say "A, jeszcze jedna rzecz" (Oh, just one more thing) and maybe English could use "issue" instead of "thing"... but still, "thing" is the first thought, I think.
So how would you say it's just a small thing in the metaphorical sense? As in no big deal or a minor issue.
In some situations maybe "mała sprawa" (a small... matter? a small issue?) could be right, e.g. "Mam do ciebie małą sprawę" (I have a small matter for you = I have something that I need to discuss with you, maybe ask you for something).
But for "no big deal" I would probably go with "To nic ważnego" (It's nothing important), "To niezbyt ważne" (It's not very important) or something in that direction.
EDIT: Alik suggested also "To drobiazg" (Wiktionary says "trifle" or "trinket" but it's generally a small thing, often something small and pretty) or "To nic takiego" (more or less like "It's nothing special").
