Abstract
Anosmia is a commonly reported symptom in COVID-19 patients that frequently occurs early in the course of the disease & may persist as a long term symptom. SARS-COV2 infection has been suggested to cause the death of support cells in the olfactory epithelium with consequences for neuronal function.The article focuses on the age old concept of Ayurveda where it is advised to start feeling the senses as the day starts & be aware of any changes with the comeback of Communicable Diseases (CD) such as the COVID 19 pandemic. As the CDs surged, the concept of eating while smelling the food emerged since the process of anosmia led to definitive changes in the nasal cavity that are definitive signs of COVID 19 infection. The current article sees the role of Homoeopathy of the AYUSH system in the process of anosmia due to COVID 19. Those adopting the process of healthy nasal health may use the therapeutic system of homeopathy to optimize the benefits of a healthy olfaction.After discussing the various modalities of anosmia, a homoeopathic treatment protocol is suggested on the lines of the markers mentioned above. The article aspires that this integration will help the nation to deal with the current & future menace of CDs.
