I'm in good health and don't have any ailments, but I've been told I need a medical certificate for my swimming lessons. Do I need to schedule an appointment just for this, or is there a simpler process to get a certificate when you're perfectly healthy?

View allI'm experiencing some pain on the left side of my lower rib cage, especially when I breathe. It just came on suddenly while I was sleeping in the evening and I'm a bit worried about what might be causing it. Could you help me understand what's going on?
The sudden onset of left lower rib cage pain when breathing may indicate costochondritis, pneumothorax, pleurisy, or muscle strain; however, it's essential to consult a doctor promptly to rule out any underlying serious conditions, especially if the pain worsens, is severe, or accompanied by difficulty breathing, cough, or fever.

Doc, I just found out I've tested positive for Covid19. I've got a bit of a cold and my temperature's been hovering between 99 to 100 F since the 18th of June. I got tested today because of it. The hospital doctors gave me paracetamol, vitamin CD, and zincovit, but Im wondering if theres anything else I should be doing. Can you help?

I've been having these mild cold symptoms that seem viral and maybe a bit allergic, like a runny nose and sneezing a lot for the past 10 days. My doctor suggested a blood test, including CRP, CBC, SGPT, SGOT, and Ferritin, to check if these could indicate COVID-19. All my blood test results came back normal except my Basophils Count is at 0, PCT at 0.187, and SGOT (AST Serum IFCC) at 50. I'm curious, is this blood test enough to understand what's going on, or should I consider a RAT for COVID or even a CT scan? I'm feeling a bit unsure about the next steps and would appreciate your advice.
