    I was not able to smell or taste anything for 2 weeks after I was tested positive for covid. During those two weeks, I did steaming daily and also took Vitamin C and Zinc tablets which were really effective. During the third week, I was able to smell strong smelling substances like deo, nail polish, camphor, etc and I got my smell and taste back gradually. It's been a month now and both my senses have been restored back to normal. I can smell and taste 100% now 😊 . Wishing everybody a speedy recovery 😁

And then it has been a slow recovery with ups and downs. But I want to give everyone some hope your smell WILL come back eventually. In my case 4 months. It was a SLOW recovery but it does come back. Today I feel like My smell is about 90% recovered from where it was before covid

    I have dealt with my loss of smell in two batches...one for six months and the other for five months. I know how depressing it can be to endure the loss of one of your senses. My best advice is to remain patient. My loss of smell was tied to allergies and inflammation as well so although my nerves were repairing, the odorant molecules could not make it to where they needed to go due to being blocked on the way. I have since recovered my sense of smell and I can honestly say I will never take it for granted again. Don't let your mind bring you down when you go day after day being let down that you can't smell the things you once enjoyed. Just like working out, your sense doesn't come back or improve immediately. Everything is a gradual process. Follow the instructions from your doctor and eventually you will start to notice a small scent, then those moments will become more frequent until one day you wake up and realize you can smell coffee and the world around you. Keep focused on healing and healing will come.

    I lost my sense of smell completely on April 30th while battling Covid. Basically I couldn't smell anything. Zero Scent. No matter how hard I breathe in or put something close to my nose.. nothing. This obviously made everything I tasted become bland or horrible. I decided to pick 4 things to smell for the week - 2 scents I hate, and 2 I love. Every day I would smell these 4 things multiple times throughout the day. Finally today on May 5th, I am starting to smell again. One of the scents I hate was the one I smelled first. And shortly after, started to smell the rest of the scents. In case anyone is wondering - the 4 scents were: Rubbing Alcohol - I hate An anti-fungal cream I used in the past for ringworm - I hate (I smelled this first) Strawberry Jam - I love Eucalyptus Spearmint - I love. Food tastes normal already even though my smell is weak, but I expect it to get back to full strength eventually. Hope this helps. I will check in periodically to update everyone.

    Thanks for sharing on this important topic! One way to try to get smell back is through Olfactory training! You can buy 4 essential oils: eucalyptus, cloves, rose, and lemon. Put 5-6 drops of each oil on water color paper and put the paper inside a brown or amber colored jar. Take short bursts of smell 2x/day for 20 seconds each time, for at least 4 months, and track the progress of your sense of smell. Hope this is helpful for people!

    Second time around that I lose my sense of smell due to a covid infection. Last time it took 6-8 weeks to recover some decent level of taste and smell. Not sure how long it will take this time. 3 vaccines and still got this crap. I normally have a very very good sense of smell, and I got it back to my sense of normal after the first time, which took 3-4 months (subjective perception and memory of what very subtle scents I could pick up during my lifetime before the loss). Still, I'm glad there are videos like this that give some decent understandable facts that leave me feeling hopeful.

    It took quite a while into the infection for me to lose my sense of smell. I had a negative test early on when I first started feeling fatigue/body aches/headache. But when my smell went 5 days later I knew I needed to get another test! I'm on day 8 now and it sucks. I'm not really sick besides a very minor sniffle - the headache & fatigue were only on that first day. Very strange. I've been out 2-3 times a day running the dog, because there's nothing else to do but watch tv. Not being able to smell or taste just leaves you feeling WEIRD.

It was lost completely that I couldn't even smell strong perfumes, including alcohols. It's my sixth day, I was reviewing for my midterm when I suddenly smelled a weird smell. I first tried to smell an alcohol, then I CAN smell it finally. I couldn't believe it so I tried with a lotion, tooth paste, soap, even feminine wash and ketchup😭 And I can smell all of that. I am so happy. I hope that I can fully regain my sense of smeeeeell. It was a long week of anxiety attacks😭 I hope it wouldn't happen to anyone, it was really hard. Thank God😇

I mean, its completely gone!! (Don't Panic) Day 17:--Body aches, my bones feel tired, i feel weak, have fever, and cold symptoms still Day 18; Same as Day 17 Day 19: Same as day 18 Day 20: Extremely tired! Feel exhausted, i cant even go shopping at Wal mart, I fell asleep in my car in the parking lot at Walmart for an hour! Just drove home, feel really tired Day 21: Have slightly more energy, still have fever, cold symptoms--I Test Positive for Covid !!! Day 22: Feel like the cold symptoms are subsiding, I no longer have a fever! Day 23: The end of the cold symptoms are near, feel much better, still have raspy throat, slight cough, partial sense of smell returning Day 24: Same as day 23 Day 25-29: Getting back to normal, no more cold symptoms, smell and taste are getting better! Day 30:--Almost completely back to normal, I have about 70% of my smell and taste senses back. Very slight cough, I have a small spot in the back of my throat that still "irritates" when i drink something hot, but definitely 90% better, and also glad I came through this now! I should be immune to Covid now :) Ya'll hang in there! Its basically a bad cold/flu. It will pass! Praise the Lord, I'm very thankful that my taste and smell have mostly returned, I just love food! For the last 3 weeks, I drank hot tea with lemon and honey daily, ate citrus fruits, took Vitamins with high Vitamin C potency. Hope this helps, God Bless you all!

I can't even sleep just thinking all the time how will I live my life without these senses🥺 I am 19 still and this situation is driving me crazy.

It randomly came back and it was very faint at first. And every day it improves about 5%. Im probably at 20% atm, which isn't much but it's DEFINITELY better than 0. Atleast I know it's coming back and getting better. Please hang in there! I used to cry and have panick attacks not being able to smell. It gets better folks!

I got Covid however it was odd. My body hurt mostly my spine. I am disabled with disk deterioration disease I have pain all the time. But this pain was not compatible at all. My neck hurt along with my hips. I couldn't stay awake I was drained. My taste and smell disappeared for 4 days now and it's slowly returning. I really would like to get the vaccine however I still see people getting this covid and it makes me nervous. So what can we take per vitamins that will help build proteins.

    My smell and taste hasn’t been the same since it went away and partly came back for example some smells don’t smell the same as they used to.

    After two weeks of steam inhalation I was finally able to get my smell back! I am never taking my smell for granted

    I lost my sense of smell and taste and it freaked me out. Almost didn’t wanna eat anything. Then a like a week went by and I started to smell again but faintly. They’re slowly coming back. But atleast they’re coming back lol

    It's 3rd day now, what I did, is surrender to God and cry out that I am not able to fix this on my own. I open my life to Him so He can move in me. Then after singing worship today, I tried to smell eucalyptus scent, It's now starting to smell. Not that strong but I can smell a bit. And this kind of victory is worthy to praise God even more. If you can appreciate the small ones then He'll give you the big ones. Have faith in Jesus/Yeshua!

    it’s been almost a year and i still haven’t fully got mine back. I am a healthy person and I don’t know why this is happening to me. Nothing tastes or smells the same. feels like it’s at 50% or some smells are extremely distorted. i have been looking for answers everywhere and i don’t know wha to do. i also feel i’ve developed long term sinus issues and my glands are clogged. it’s crazy
