No smell and taste. No cold
Hello doc,
Last week I had mild temperature of 99° and it got cured after taking dolo 650 for 3 times. After 2-3 days I got a little bit of cold and nose is kinda blocked. I'm not able to smell anything and taste anything.
I have been taking steam inhalation. My nose is blocked but I do not have runny nose or nothing comes when I blow my nose.
Do I need any medications?
