Suggest Treatment For Symptoms Of Parosmia

Question: My wife is smelling a exhaust gas odor all the time. We have cleaned the house, the fire place and anything we can think of. She is 52 years old and started this about 3 weeks ago.
Brief Answer:
This can be paraosmia or smelling things not there
Detailed Answer:
Hi welcome to health care magic,
This can be paraosmia or smelling things not there due to involvement of nose centre in brain.
I would suggest you see an ENT surgeon and if necessary a Neurologist.
But wait for maybe a week more to see whether it goes away.
You can revert back.
Regards
