Lost Ability To Taste. Dentist Stated Redness On Palate Of Mouth. Having Sinus Also. Course Of Action?

Thanks for the query.
Reading your history,I feel there are two important causes for loss of taste in you.
1st..poor dental hygiene resulting in local growth of bacteria and so resulting in loss of taste.This can also result in redness of roof of mouth.
2nd...allergic rhinitis and sinusitis can also result in loss of taste.
Do's for you..
Take proper care of oral hygiene.
Do gargles with warm saline.
Scrap your tongue regularly.
Take steam inhalation
Avoid cold drinks.
Take more of hot liquids.
May take some anti allergic tablet.
Use nasal decongestant,if your nose is blocked.
I hope you should be all right in next 7 to 10 days.
If you don't find any improvement,then you may consult an ENT specialist along with your dentist.
I hope it helps however you may revert to me for any further query.
Best of luck
Thanks
