I had fever a week ago due to cold. Now my fever has, gone but from last 2 days i m unable to smell or taste anything. I can feel that something is sweet or bitter but cant exactly feel the taste or smell. Plz guide or prescribe a medicine
Hi, please get a CBC done and book a home based COVID-19 PCR test. thanks.
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 ..
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.
use plenty of hot fluids
As well and other mentioned things in my previous comment
it could be covid 19.so go for covid testing.isolate your self at home.take all the precautions,use separate washroom and if not possible use it in the last and after use just disinfect it.
Loss of smell n taste is a symptom of covid...since u had fever too...plz go for covid test...

tab fexet 120mg twice a day.

dont take stress...you will be fine soon.
First of all,get your COVID19 PCR done for screeningpurpose.However loss of smell or taste sensation may occur in other conditions as well.
Regarding it's management,Kindly take plenty of liquids.Maintain proper hygiene and social distancing.Take adequate rest.If fever recurs you can take Tab.Panadol 1+1+1 SOS. Take more fruits and vegetables.
Also take Tab.Surbex Z 1 daily plus Tab.CaC 1000 1 daily as supplements.
In current scenario, having these symptoms first you should go for Covid-19 test. Meanwhile start surbex-z, nasal spray, steam inhalation.
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.
please get covid19 PCR done.
until the results come in, isolate yourself in a separate room, use a separate washroom. wear masks and gloves when meeting someone, keep a distance of 6 feet too.
take sgindrop D 400mg once in the morning daily
cac1000 once in evening daily
drink 6 to 8 glasses of water a day
take steam with kalonji oil drops in water daily
call 1166

Please have yourself tested for Covid and seek consultation from a physician.
Take steam inhalation for now, Isolate yourself and get Covid-19 PCR done.
Sir isolate yourself Positively. Get yourself Tested for Covid 19. Your symptoms are Highly Suggestive that you are Infected. Nothing to worry about at all if you are not having symptoms.
