I had COVID, I have an altered taste and feeling of something in my throat?

53 -year-old man2 years ago
Hello, since I tested positive for COVID-19 19 on June 27, 2022. I isolated myself and teleworked for 10 days. Since then everything is better but I have an altered taste and a swelling of the fight that causes a sensation of something in the throat.

Hello Sir, I'm sorry to read about your troubles!
Are you still experiencing congestion or runny nose? If so, that's what you need to address, including nasal hygiene with a saline solution like Hydrasense or Sinus Rinse, several times a day
If you no longer feel congestion, there are small studies that have shown that the "training" of the senses, that is to say, smelling foods with a strong smell like coffee, ginger and others could help. This being said, not much is known about this yet, so if it doesn't work, you should consult a doctor to rule out other causes.
Sincerely,
Tom Samaha, pharmacist
