A member asked:

I have had a cold and cough for several days. i cannot taste or smell. how long will this last?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Stuffy nose: This occurs secondary to nasal congestion, use a saline nasal spray and over the counter decongestant to improve your symptoms. If your lack of smell persists long after the cold is gone, time to see your doctor for a possible sinus infection.
