Find reason: Loss of smell can be associated with nasal or sinus inflammation or infection, and/or congestion, but can occur after head trauma especially with injury to olfactory nerve at base of skull (cribiform plate).. Some patients improve with zinc supplements, some do better with sinus surgery. Medication rxtns, early parkinson's and alzheimer's may be causative.
