I need a medical fitness certificate for my job. Not sure where to start or what exactly is required. Can you guide me on how I can get this from a doctor and what kind of tests or information might be involved? I'm feeling a bit anxious about it.

View allI'm really worried because someone I know tested positive for Covid and had symptoms. But after about 5 days, the symptoms went away. Do we really need to do another Covid test now, or is it okay to skip it since theyre feeling better? I'm just unsure if there's a risk, so some guidance would be really helpful.

So, I got scratched by a stray cat but I'm pretty sure it hasn't been vaccinated. I'm not really certain if it used its teeth on my skin or just scratched with its nails, or maybe both? But there's nothing to see reallyno marks, no wounds, no bleeding, and it doesn't hurt or burn at all. Do you think I should get a tetanus shot? Or is it okay to wait a month or two before doing that? Also, is an antirabies injection really necessary since there's no bleeding or visible wound? The last time I got a tetanus shot was back in May 2016, and I did clean the area right away with Dettol. What do you suggest?
burning sensation on the tongue, accompanied by bleeding and redness, can be concerning. Possible causes include: - Tongue injury or trauma - Oral thrush (fungal infection) - Geographic tongue (benign condition) - Vitamin deficiencies (e.g., B12, iron) Consult a dentist or an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist for a thorough evaluation guidance.

Can you tell me if it's okay to have golgappa when I've got a sore throat and a cold? I'm worried it might make my throat feel worse. Is it safe, or should I avoid it?
It's best to avoid golgappa during a cold or throat pain. The spicy and cold ingredients can irritate the throat, potentially worsening discomfort or inflammation. It's advisable to stick to soothing, warm foods for better relief.
