Firstly don’t panic
Next the hot water caused some injury to your oral cavity
Now since when have you had loss of smell and taste and did you have new onset throat pain due to which you opted for a beta done gargle ?
Loss of taste could be due to an injury to your tongue loss of smell can’t be explained
So important here is if before the beta done gargle with hot water you had sore throat and there developed loss of smell then monitor your self at home with:
Twice daily Temperature check
And any worsening symptoms of throat pain feverish sensation extreme fatigue new onset cough breathlessness
If you have none of the above then the injury due hot water gargle will self heal
If you develop any of the above mentioned symptoms contact your nearest hospital immediately
