I've been on a course of Derinide AQ and Defza, and during the treatment, I got my sense of smell back. But now it's gone again, and sometimes there's this weird odor in my nose. It's been about 20 days using this nasal spray. Is there a permanent solution for this? Will I ever get my sense of smell back? What do you suggest?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition called anosmia, which is the partial or complete loss of the sense of smell. In some cases, medications like nasal sprays can affect the sense of smell. To help regain your sense of smell, you can try using a saline nasal spray to help clear your nasal passages. Additionally, you can use a steroid nasal spray like Flonase (fluticasone) to reduce inflammation in the nasal passages. It's important to follow up with your doctor to rule out any underlying causes of your loss of smell. In some cases, seeing an ENT specialist may be necessary for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm really struggling with sinus issues and just wanted some advice. For the past couple of months, I've been having this pain on the left side of my forehead that goes down to my nose. There's also this yellowish, smelly discharge that keeps coming from the left side of my nose. I just had a CTPNS done and it showed moderate mucosal thickening in my left maxillary sinus, causing about 70 to 80% of air space to opacify, and it's reaching into the middle meatus through the maxillary ostium. There's also some moderate thickening in the bilateral ethmoid air cells and mild thickening in the bilateral frontal sphenoid sinuses. I've got bilateral concha bullosa with secondary mucosal thickening too. I've been on medication for the past 15 days things like Augmentin 625, Allegra M, Defza 6mg, Ezicas nasal spray, and Enzoflam. They help for a bit, but after 7 to 8 hours, the symptoms just come back. What do you suggest I do now?
Its essential to complete the prescribed medication course, as it can help reduce inflammation and infection and if youre not experiencing lasting relief after 2 weeks of consistent medication.If medications are not resolving the issue, consult an ENT specialist for further evaluation.
