Hi Daniel, Welcome to HealthcareMagic Forum.
You are suffering from Anosmia or Loss of Smell. There are various reasons to it like, Acute Sinusitis, Common Cold, Hay Fever, Flu, Nonallergic Rhinitis, Deviated Nasal Septum or Nasal Polyps. Kindly get yourself examined by a ENT specialist so that he can examine you thoroughly and rule out the exact cause. The cause has to be found out and treated to relive you off your symptoms.
Kindly have patience and eat healthy nutritious balanced diet and exercise regularly. Although loss of smell can sometimes be a symptom of a serious condition, it is not necessarily serious itself. Practice relaxation techniques like Yoga and Meditation.

Wish you Good Health, Take Care.
