Any way to help get taste and smell back when you have covid?
Wife and I are both positive for covid, I tested pos on Friday and she on Wed. Thursday evening I lost taste and smell. That is a very weird sensation eating without tasting or smelling your food.

Do any of you know any tips, tricks to get the senses fired back up?

Other than that, it hasn't affected us too bad. Nasal congestion and slight headache. Hope it stays that way.

If I was in your shoes I’d go on the ivermectin trifecta asap and rid your body of the virus! Ivermectin...doxycycline...zinc

And also do the Vit D3 hammer and Vit C

Get a telemed prescription or you can find the drugs otc in other ways.

Zinc depletion is what causes the loss if taste and smell. Take your zinc.

Really?
Do you have a short memory? What about nearly every year since you were a child ...colds and flus stop you smelling and tasting too.

One of the amazing things you learn in nueroanatomy is olfactory nerves can repair and regenerate. So don't give up hope. You can look that up.

But what did the placebo group do who took nothing? 24 hours I am guessing.

This.

You have to wait for the stem cells in your nose to regenerate.

Yes, you have stem cells in your nose. They are for this purpose.

I always did. One time for 3 months when I was in college.

I was a preschool teacher and spent years sick. It sucked.

There's info about retraining it by smelling familiar smells or lemon oil and remembering what lemon smelled like. Do it like twice a day.
