Olfactory receptors are located at the top of the nasal cavity, called olfactory mucosa, which is not a channel for breathing gas, but covers the bulge of the turbinate. Smelly air can only come into contact with olfactory receptors in the rotating airflow.
If you have chronic rhinitis, turbinate hypertrophy will often affect the contact between airflow and olfactory receptors, leading to olfactory dysfunction.
Loss of sense of smell: if you can't smell for unknown reasons, it is called loss of sense of smell. Because of nasal congestion, air cannot reach the sensitive area of the nose; Secondly, the olfactory nerve is injured or damaged, and the olfactory region of the brain is sick. People who lose their sense of smell can distinguish salty, sour and bitter tastes with their tongues, but they can't distinguish the fragrance.
Losing the sense of smell has a great influence on people. First of all, the disappearance of sense of smell is generally caused by disease. A cold or rhinitis can affect the breathing of people with noses, leading to poor breathing and dry mouth, which in turn affects sleep and makes them feel poor. Secondly, if you lose your sense of smell, you can't smell smells, such as flowers, meat and incense. This is a great loss for eating and drinking, and life is tasteless. Nothing smells good after eating. Again, the olfactory organs are two entrances and exits to communicate with the external environment inside our bodies. Therefore, they shoulder certain vigilance tasks. People's keen sense of smell can prevent harmful gases (gas bombs in war, liquefied petroleum gas ...) from entering the body.
Rhinitis is an inflammatory disease of nasal cavity, which is caused by viruses, bacteria, allergens, various physical and chemical factors and some systemic diseases. The main pathological changes of rhinitis are congestion, swelling, exudation, hyperplasia, atrophy or necrosis of nasal mucosa. I used to have it, especially when the seasons changed. Every day, I have tears and a lot of runny nose. I took a lot of medicine and treated it many times, but the effect was not good. Later, I started fitness and kept jogging every day. I must sweat. I said the important thing three times, sweating like a pig, sweating like a pig, and I have been insisting on it for the sixth year now. My rhinitis disappeared before I knew it, and my face peeled off. I wonder if it has anything to do with sports.
