I'm having a tough time with my night shifts at work, and it feels like my request to change shifts isn't being heard. I'm wondering if there's a way a doctor could provide a medical certificate to support my case. Do you think it's possible for a doctor to help me with this?

I'm trying to figure out how to get a medical fitness certificate because I need one to start at my new job. I know it has to be from a registered medical practitioner, but I'm not entirely sure what qualifies someone as one.

I'm a bit worried because I've had a dry cough for about a week, and now the right side of my back is swollen. I went to the doctor, and she said the swelling is from the cough and it's nothing serious. The swelling has gone down, but I'm still feeling a little pain around my right rib area. Should I be concerned about this lingering pain? Could it be something more than just from the cough?
