Doctor reveals the causes of loss of sense of smell

Dr. Vladislav Moshchenko, an ENT specialist, announced that food poisoning, nasal polyps and brain diseases can cause disorder and loss of the sense of smell.

In an interview with the "Izvestia" newspaper, the doctor points out that the sense of smell is characterized by the ability to capture and identify substances from its smell in the air. And that its primary function is protection. In addition, sensations of taste can only be explained and appreciated by the sense of smell. According to some estimates, a person with anosmia can only recognize 20 percent of the taste of things.

He says, "There are many factors that can cause a sense of smell disorder: sinusitis, infectious diseases and their consequences, allergies, nerve diseases, the effect of toxic substances, poisoning, nasal polyps, injuries and surgical intervention, congenital anomalies, brain diseases, and others."

According to him, in a number of cases it is not possible to determine the cause of the loss of the sense of smell. As for children, they may lose their sense of smell at an early age for several reasons: congenital anomalies in the development of the nasal cavity, the head, the presence of infections in these areas, and even anosmia.

And he adds: He treats the loss of the sense of smell using medicines and drugs and training the sense of smell (training on smells using different aromatic materials). Sometimes, in certain cases, it is treated with surgical intervention.

He says: "The method of treatment must be agreed upon with the specialist doctor. Because the effectiveness of treatment and the possibility of restoring the sense of smell depends a lot on the nature of the disease and the factors causing it. The olfactory epithelium is characterized by a high ability to recover, which always gives hope for restoring the sense of smell."
