Will partial loss of smell come back on
Will partial loss of smell come back on?
I caught cold back on 25th Apr. No fever.
On 6th I could not smell things around.
Cold Symptoms waerenot getting better after trying antibiotics.
Now no nasal congestion after 27th May.
But still have lack of proper smell. I can only smell strong smelling items. And can recognise strong isolate taste such as mango, ilaichi, litchi. But mixed taste and mild tase not able to recognise property. Is there any medicine or spray that will help me recover fast? One more thing, sometimes I feel nose is heavy(dry).
