Anyone who’s recently lost their sense of smell should keep an eye out for other symptoms such as fever or persistent cough.
If other covid-19 symptoms are present, it’s best to seek medical help.

The central explanation is that active or incorrectly functioning cells of the brain cause the perception of the disturbing odor. Another central cause is that the perception of the phantom odor usually follows after the occurrence of seizures. The time span of the symptoms usually lasts a few seconds.

Your sense of smell may go back to normal in a few weeks or months. Treating the cause might help. For example, steroid nasal sprays or drops might help if you have sinusitis or nasal polyps. A treatment called smell training can also help some people.

The loss of the senses of taste and smell can sometimes be the only symptom that covid-19 causes. The symptoms are usually temporary, and taste and smell should significantly improve or return within 4 weeks. However, in some cases, this may take up to 6 months.

The symptoms you are telling may be of covid. First of all, isolate him in a seperate room and get his rt-pcr done. Maintain proper hydration, drink atleast 3l of water everyday. Miix 1 packet of ors solution in 1l of water and consume it gradually over 12 hours. For further queries and assistance, contact directly through text/audio/video call. Thanks.
