Loss of Smell Due to a Concussion
Posted: 02-13-07 03:00am

Had a head concussion and as a result lost my sense of smell. After two doctor visits (2 weeks in between the first to the second visit) the doctor informed me that time will recover my smell, he predicted 90% in 1 year.What are the effects/consequences of each of the following: smoking cigarettes, drinking alcohol, and smoking marijuana? Will any/all of these inhibit my recovery of smell? And if so in what specific way and in relation to what specific quantities. In the month since my concussion I have abstained from all of these until now. Thanks for your time, I dont want to be without smell (and in a way taste) forever!
