I'm looking at my MRI results and I'm seeing terms like calcified granuloma in the right parietal lobe and mild diffuse cerebral atrophy. Can you help me understand what these really mean? Is there something I should be worried about?

I've been dealing with some issues after testing positive for COVID-19 back in September. Initially, I only lost my taste and smell, and while I did test negative after two weeks, I'm still having trouble. It's been over a month now, and although my sense of taste is slowly coming back, it's nowhere near normal. Plus, I keep getting headaches. Could you give me some advice on what might be going on and how to recover fully?

That needs further evaluation,visit neurophysician for the same and appropriate management
