Hello,

Possible causes for phantosmia are:
1. Digestive problems
2. Atropic rhinitis
3. Sinusitis
4. Turbinate hypertrophy

Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Use water vapour inhalation thrice a day. Avoid fatty food. Chewing a ginger or clove may useful. Use Carval Plus capsules one in your handkerchief and smell it. If there is no improvement, please consult with your ENT specialist he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu, Internal Medicine Specialist
