Before donating blood, better you take a fitness certificate from the physician there. It's because donating blood is a very good job, but if by-chance any bacteria got remained in blood and while donating getting transferred to blood, then it can harm another patient who is already in pain. So to be frank, just get a fitness certificate from physician, and then donate blood. Take care :)
