Question 1

I've been really worried because I lost my sense of smell around October 14th or 15th. I got tested on the 16th and my ct value came back as 27. I've been isolating since the 15th, and I haven't had any other symptoms. My oxygen, pulse, and temperature have all been normal, and thankfully my sense of smell has returned.

The pain you are experiencing near your ear and jaw could be due to temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ). You can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen (Advil) 400mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the area and doing gentle jaw exercises may help alleviate the discomfort. If the pain persists, you may need to see a specialist for further evaluation and management.

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you may be experiencing Eustachian tube dysfunction due to your recent cold. To help relieve the blockage and pain in your ears, I recommend taking a decongestant like Sudafed (pseudoephedrine) to help reduce the swelling in the Eustachian tubes. You can also try using a nasal spray like Afrin (oxymetazoline) to further reduce congestion. Additionally, continue using the Otrivin ear drops for relief. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions for each medication. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it would be best to consult with an ENT specialist for further evaluation and management.
