Loss of smell
I have on and off fever of 99 from last 3 days. On day 1 and 2 i had terrible throat pain and light cold headache body pain.
Now on day 4 i have lost my sense of smell. Taste is fine. Fever is still on and off. No cold, mild cough.
Is there any possibility that i have lost smell due to flu? Or had cold or due to
congested nose
