Do covid test. If positive, then it will take some time. 1. Do saline gargles daily (preferably twice). 2. Whenever possible do steam inhalation also. 3. Cover your nose and mouth with hanky for at least 30 sec when you go in dusty areas also when you go in and out of ac. As our nose is the most sensitive part of our body, when there is temperature difference between two rooms or inside n outside, then if we not protect our nose, it gets affected. 4. Drink hot liquids --hot liquids relieve nasal congestion, prevent dehydration, and soothe the uncomfortably inflamed membranes that line your nose and throat.

Dear Ms. lybrate-user, if Ms. patnayak has no other symptoms, and she has been tested and found negative for covid 19 then she does not need any further medication. The loss of sense of smell can take quite some time to return and generally returns on its own. However if she is eager to take any medication for it, she can use a vitamin tablet which has vit b12 in it. Best wishes.

Dear lybrate-user, please tell dipika to stop self medication as this could prove harmful to her. She must get a covid test done as soon as possible, after which she should consult a good ent specialist for a proper sino-nasal evaluation. Yours sincerely.
