Why can't I taste or smell anything??
It has been two weeks since I have been able to taste or smell anything. Why is this? I have been getting sinus infections every month for the past year and a half, and nothing seems to fix this problem. I have been on Cipro, every steroid nasal spray, saline, Anefrin, Alegra, Zyrtec-D... nothing works! Please help!
If your sinus infection is in the upper sinuses, it will block your olfactories. All the stuff you tried often doesn't work, here's why

The Flip-Turn Sinus Flush is mildly risky, because you have to bend over to do it, preferably in a shower, but you can also do it outside on soft ground, or you can kneel down and lean over a bathtub, or perhaps a plastic basin or tub, with the shower running for steam.
You should see an ENT first, make sure you don't have polyps or something else causing a physical blockage.
