Can viral fever come back even if it's the same season? I had viral fever about a month ago but now my throat feels like it might be infected again. I did a five-day antibiotic course the last time I got sick. Is it possible that I could have viral fever again, and what should I do now?

I'm trying to apply for a swimming program, and I need a medical certificate from an MBBS doctor as proof of my physical fitness. Im in good shape and can swim, but they require this as part of the admission process. What's the best way to go about getting this certificate, and how much might it cost?

To obtain a medical certificate for swimming admission, you will need to visit a doctor, preferably an MBBS doctor, for a physical examination. During the examination, the doctor will assess your overall health and fitness level to ensure you are fit for swimming. The cost of the certification may vary depending on the healthcare provider and location. You can request the doctor to provide a physical fitness certificate specifically for swimming admission. The certificate should state that you are in good health and fit to participate in swimming activities. Make sure to bring any necessary identification and payment for the consultation. It is important to be honest during the examination and provide any relevant medical history to the doctor. Once the examination is complete and the doctor confirms your fitness for swimming, they will issue the medical certificate for your application. Remember to inquire about the specific requirements for the certificate from the institution where you are applying for swimming admission.

I've been dealing with fever and this constant tiredness for about 20 days now. I even did blood tests for malaria and typhoid, but everything came back negative. I'm not having any issues like irritation while passing urine either. I've been taking paracetamol, and it helps for a bit, but then the fever and tiredness just come back. What might be going on?
