Loss of smell and taste
Am 30 yrs old. I feel like always mucus/phlegm in my throat before corona itself. I have mild sinus pblm.rarely thick mucus comes from either nose like a thread.
Before a week, my throat was itching even eyes and nose.
Since 2 days, I lost smell and taste.
No fever and runny nose.
Is it related to sinus?

It could be due to sinusitis.. The smell receptors are located in the top most part of the ear.. Any obstruction of the nasal passage can lead to loss of smell..
