What to do if the taste has disappeared due to illness?

This is often the case with diseases of the upper respiratory tract and with severe rhinitis. the oral cavity communicates with the nasal cavity. In addition, the full-fledged taste of products can be felt only with the coordinated work of taste and olfactory receptors. With a runny nose, the latter practically do not perceive extraneous odors, therefore, the perception of taste becomes simpler, and most often only basic tastes are felt: salty, sweet, sour and bitter. Sometimes the reason may not lie in diseases of the nasopharynx.

To get rid of this, you must consult a doctor for the selection of treatment.
