Losing your sense of smell

Loss of sense of smell is caused by affecting the function of the nerves involved in sensing smell either by directly injuring them, in the case of viruses or causing swelling in the case of sinus infections and allergies. There are 4 or 5 common causes: 1.Coronavirus 2. A cold or flu 3. Sinus infection 4. An allergy (like hayfever) 5. Growths in your nose (usually called nasal polyps) And different treatment options including: 1. Giving it time to self resolve 2. Inhaled nasal steroid 3. Nasal douching - this really helps to clear out the nasal passage. This is a link to the Neil Med Rinse irrigator with sachets that I mention in the video: https://amzn.to/3AouFw9 4.
