it happens sometimes when you come out of febrile condition that your taste and smell sensations might distrubed.
just add some of these medicne to your daily routine
tab surbex z
1 daily
..
rhino sone p nasal spray
2+2+2 in nostrils for 1 weeks it will improve your smell sensations ..

Dr. Muhammad Jawad Hussain · Answer

first of all if you are saying that you can tell whether anything is sweet or bitter it means your taste sensation is intact..With regards to smell, if you have cold there is possibility that due to inflammation you may have loss sense of smell for few days...you will gain it in few days .I.A....further continue your general precautions as there is pandemic going around and there is no cure for it...To me you have no such covid symptoms but you can get yourself tested for your sake.

Dr. Umar Afzal · Answer

In current scenario, having these symptoms first you should go for Covid-19 test. Meanwhile start surbex-z, nasal spray, steam inhalation.

Dr. Sania Bashir · Answer

As respected drs mentioned that its most likely due to covid... I must mention here symptoms of covid and common fly almost same with some specificity of covid as loss of smell completely as nose doesnot exist and breathing issue. So if u have any symptoms of even commomn cold better is to isolate urself even from family members.
Thanks for further gudance u can take my appointment on marham for proper counselling and immume boosting.
