Accidentally discovered a weird issue
For last one month i am having a feeling that I can't smell things with my right nostril. But today when my mom cooked the dry fish and at the same time I was doing my breathing excercise as a part of yoga I am sure about that . At first i ignored but when i close my left nostril while having deep breath there is no smell I can feel but with left nostril open I can feel the smell of dry fish . So I tried that with flower result same. Is it serious or what issue is this ? No sinus issues ( dental check up already in few weeks ago ) no inflammation in maxillary or other sinus .
Can I get an advice for now .

Please consult Ent specialist physically. A thorough examination will be required to rule out other pathologies in the nose for hyposmia.
