I had a silicone sheet in my nose for a week, and I continued to have a runny nose... but there was almost no smell when I ate. On the day of surgery, I came home from surgery and ate, and it seemed to taste better, but it's been 6 days now, and the smell is very faint, and there's almost no taste. I can feel it..! Have you ever lost your sense of smell for a long time? The doctor said I could think of it like a cold (my mucous membranes were barely swollen and I had a bit of a runny nose), but I was worried. Please share with those with similar reviews ;)
