Dear Practo User, You need to describe your concern about difficulty in swallowing in more detail along with history of your recent illness.During Fever and convalescent phase these kind of problems can be present.Pharyngitis /tonsillitis gastric acid reflux can cause these sort of compaints.Howevere based on limited information and without clinical evaluation nothing conclusive can be said.Gargles using lukewarm water with some salt can help alternatively you can use betadine gargle solution.Regarding loss of taste,it will be restored in few days time, no specific treatment can be offered for it in most of the cases.
Next Steps
Consult with a physician/ENT surgeon if symptoms persists.There can be other causes of dysphagia  which needs to be ruled out.

This loss of appetite and loss of taste commonly happens after viral fever. we can say it as post effect. Continue your medication whatever prescribed. If you want more details and discussion, how to recover from this post effect, you can share the reports and other details too.
