Hello All,

I am new to both injury and the forum. Had a fall 10 days ago. Hit the back of my head on pavement. Spent 3 days in the hospital. Severe vertigo initially and after 3 days realized I cannot smell a thing.

Thankful that I was not injured worse but would really like to be able to smell things. Anyone else have this problem and more importantly, can you offer me hope that it will return when the brain swelling subsides?

Still dizzy with quick changes in position and have a "full" feeling in my head. MD reported that I had contusions in front and back of skull.

Thanks,

Yanky
