Is your smell normal before covid?
Do you any nose obstruction problem like deviated nasal septum or sinus or polyps..
If the smell is normal before covid, it is due to covid effect only..
To be frank it has to be recover spontaneously
Please wait n watch and use antioxidants and multivitamins,
Tab. Ginkobiloba twice daily for 4 wks
Tab. Met b12 once daily or methyl b12 injection once weekly for 4 wks..
Otrivin nasal drops thrice daily for 5 days
Inwish you early recovery .
