I've been working out for the past couple of weeks, mainly doing pushups every evening, around 100 in 3 sets. But now I've started having this odd sensation where I struggle with breathing and swallowing when I'm having dinner. It's been going on for about three days. The feeling does go away after a while, but I'm worried. Could it have something to do with my chest muscles tightening from the pushups? I don't have asthma or anything like that. What do you think might be causing this?

I'm really worried because I've been feeling pretty awful this week with a fever and body aches that are making it hard for me to even walk. I've been taking Paracetamol but it's not helping much, and now I've got a runny nose too. What could be going on and should I be doing something different to feel better?

Given the severity of your symptoms, including fever, body ache, weakness, inability to walk, and running nose, despite taking Paracetamol, it's essential to consult a doctor immediately to rule out underlying conditions

I'm trying to get a fitness certificate for my Learning License, but I'm a bit lost on where to start. Can any MBBS doctor provide this certificate? I'm not sure who to contact or where to go. Any advice would be really helpful!

You can visit a nearby clinic or hospital and request the doctor to conduct a medical examination to issue the fitness certificate. The doctor will assess your overall health and determine if you are fit to drive.
