Low sense of smell n taste
Hi doc I had common cold which was treated with vicks action 500 , took 9 tabs in three days. But it's been 4 days my sense of smell is very less. No other symptoms. I feel like burning sensation sometimes in upper wall of nose from nostrils to deep inside... Is this to be worried? Regards
