I'm dealing with worms and it's been bothering me for a bit now. I'm also breastfeeding my baby. Is it safe to take medication for the worms while I'm feeding? I'm just really worried about any possible effects on my baby.

I tested positive for Covid 19 back on May 11th, and my CT value was 23 at that time. I've been feeling completely fine and symptom-free for the past 9 days, and my sense of smell is back. When would be the right time for me to get tested again?

Since you've fully recovered and have no symptoms for the last 9 days, you generally don't need to get retested unless required for specific reasons, such as travel or a medical procedure. If you're feeling fine and not in a high-risk situation, you can safely move forward without further testing.

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.
