I felt cold and malaria like 5 days ago, I drank a combo of action bitters, lipton and alabukum, and the cold disappeared.

But now i mostly have a stuffy nose and have lost my sense of smell.

do i need to panic?

Do not panic! But do try to go get tested.

Getting tested is both for your benefit, the benefit of those who may have been around you since you contracted this thing, as well as the betterment of the Nigerian healthcare system in Nigeria as a whole.

NO NEED TO PANIC. It may be sinusitis or common cold....

however I suggest you use good inhaler and herbal medicines.

You will be fine

If you have difficulty in breathing plus the other symptoms you mentioned, I would advise you to go for testing and if other wise then you should get some drugs and treat it.

I would advise you to dial the number. You need to know your status.

Even as you continue any self-medicating regimen you are used to, please go get tested, at least for the sake of those who may have contacted whatever infection it is you may carry, before your symptoms began to show.
