Have not gone to doctor as seems not to get worse, and some days much less... makes me think perhaps I have some allergy I have never known of ? Been in Florida most of life, so can't be change of environment ! Maybe some kind of mosquito spray ? Who knows. Never had reaction to golf course chemicals in my life, so just can't figure this out !
Reduction in taste is a classic strange symptom of COVID. Check it out by getting tested because you don't want to infect others.
