A member asked:

I have sinusitis, i believe its chronic because ive had it for 3 months almost, i lost my smell due to it, even when my nose is clear for small periods of the day i cant smell still, will it return ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Get covid test : Sinusitis typically does not interfere with smell for 3 months but some covid-19 cases continue to show these symptoms for months. 1. Get a covid test to determine if you had the virus and thus may shed light onto your prognosis. Sadly, if it was covid-19 as cause, time for recovery is indeterminate. 2. If chronic sinusitis is still an issue, your doc can offer antibiotics, nasal lavage.
