Still got the knack of smell from years of seeing/smelling it in med school and residency. I don’t think it developed into anything else. It’s just repetition I suppose. Now a days, when people go see a provider for “sore throat” they automatically get a throat swab and wouldn’t be surprised if the provider doesn’t even look in your mouth. Pre-covid, I was always looking into people mouths and rarely wore a mask unless it was proven flu or RSV and I think that’s where I was able to hone my smelling skill. Now things like c diff and blood in stool doesn’t require any skill. You smell it once and you know. Edit: sorry for delayed response. I hope this answers your question. |
