About Anosmia (Loss of Smell)

Anosmia is the partial or complete loss of the sense of smell. It can be temporary due to cold or allergies or long-term due to neurological or nasal issues. At Paras Hospital, Srinagar, we provide both medical and surgical solutions for anosmia, tailored to the root cause.
