Suggest Treatment For Severe Sinus Infection

I took antibiotic treatment for a severe sinus infection which started before Thanksgiving. My voice has returned and I am no longer feverish. My taste buds are still impaired and I am wondering how soon favorite holiday favors will be picked up. Is there anything I can do to speed up the process?

Hi. Yes, you may take multivitamin pills that contain Vitamin C and B complex vitamins to speed up the process. Tastebuds typically take 2-3 weeks to recover. Avoid spicy and hot food in the mean while. Smoking and alcohol consumption to be stopped too.
