Hi. Did you also have a fever when you had a cold? Did you test for Covid-19? COVID-19 is one of the most common causes for sudden loss of smell during this pandemic and hence it has to ruled out before investigating for other causes. Pls share more details or consult an ENT specialist near you for further evaluation. Regards, Dr. Aanchal, Therapeia centre, Bangalore
