    Hi Vincent! I'm answering a little late, so I don't know if your problem persists.

    In any case, 10 months with lack of taste is indeed a long time.

    The doctor who performed a nose job on a friend of mine (twice even) said that it is normal to lose your sense of smell and taste for at most three months after the procedure due to crust formation.

    I would strongly advise you to see an ENT doctor (preferably the same one who performed the surgery) to assess the situation.
