My (lack of) sense of smell agrees with you. 9 months post infection.
- andi999 6y agoDid you get a checkup? I had loss of sense of smell 4 years ago, some bacterial infection of paranasal sinus, treated with antibiotics. What I mean, maybe initially you lost it due to Corona, but some bacterial superinfection keeps it away.
- Jon_Lowtek 6y agocovid based loss of smell is suspected to be a result of an infection of the sustentacular and basal cells in the olfactory epithelium. It should return once the infection is gone. You should probably have that checked out.
- JohnTHaller 6y agoSome of it returned, but a bit messed up. Same with my girlfriend. Same with several friends. It's pretty common. I only regained the ability to smell natural gas somewhat in the last month. It varies day to day whether I can smell it, though. Or smell at all.
