When to See a Doctor

If the unusual taste sensation appears after a procedure, individuals should check with their healthcare provider about a time frame for recovery. The strange sense of taste could be temporary and can happen post-surgery.

If it's not chemotherapy or post-surgery causing dysgeusia, other conditions should be ruled out. If prescribed medication is causing taste problems, a health care provider might switch medications. Individuals should consult a doctor if the problem persists.
