I did a medical exam for the temporary foreign worker category last May 27, 2022.

1. Can I use that for my student permit application?
2. Will the visa officer have a problem if they saw my medical exam history?

A medical is only valid for a year so it will be expired.

VO won't have a problem with you having had a previous medical completed unless there were findings that needed further evaluation, if so they might want to follow up on those items again if still present.

I see, so while the medical exam would be valid on filing, it will likely be expired by the time the VO studies the results. Okay, thanks.
