Sense of smell not restrored

2022-01-11 08:12:28
Hello Doctor. I was diagnosed as Covid positive in the month of April 2021. Then I underwent proper Covid treatment in the hospital and at home too. But still till date , my sense of smell is not restored completely. Sometimes I can smell everything slightly and sometimes I get only same smell from everything.. Taste also is still affected. What should I do to restore this completely?

Restoration of senses following Covid recovery is quite unpredictable Steam inhalation may be beneficial

Hello ma'am, this is something that is been seen in some people affected with covid. This will be ok with some more time, you can't do anything to restore this, if it is due to covid. I suggest you to consult an ent specialist to rule out other causes of your smelling issues. For a detailed consultation please contact me here on practo.
