Post-COVID Smell Loss: Why It Happens, When It Recovers, and the Role of PRP
Loss of smell after COVID-19 occurs because the virus damages the supporting cells of the olfactory epithelium rather than simply blocking the nose — which is why it can persist long after the infection resolves. Smell training started early gives the best chance of recovery, and for persistent cases beyond six months, Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy injected directly into the olfactory niche is available at Absolute ENT, Singapore.
