What you need to know
Your senses of smell and taste are important for many aspects of your life.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) can cause problems with smell and taste.
Loss of smell is often the cause of loss of taste after TBI.
Talk to your doctor about changes in your smell and/or taste.
Why ...
Although some of the relationship changes after TBI are difficult and can be painful, there are many things that couples can do in order to enjoy each other and their relationship in new, positive, and meaningful ways.
