Are You Experiencing These Symptoms?
- Difficulty detecting odors

Loss of smell became widely recognized during the COVID-19 pandemic.
However, reduced sense of smell is not limited to COVID-19.
It has long been known that some people experience changes in their sense of smell after recovering from a common cold.
In traditional East Asian medicine, the sense of smell is considered closely related to the function of the lungs.
When the body is affected by respiratory illness, changes in smell perception may occur.
At our clinic, we evaluate not only nasal symptoms but also overall body balance and respiratory function.
When smell disturbances persist, it may be helpful to consider the condition of the body as a whole.
