Hello! the altered smell could be due to Atrophic Rhinitis. do you have any history of chronic rhinitis/nasal congestion or discharge? nasal crusting?
the tinnitus and the pain have a neurological cause. You must consult a neurologist and an ENT specialist. I'm sorry I'm a general physician so can't make a definite diagnosis.
In the mean while, you could start with Tab. Mecobalamin + Pregablin once daily for 10 days.
This shall bring some relief.

Are you a diabetic ? or Hypertensive?
just get these checked.
