I currently work in Company A and plans to switch to Company B.The notice period in company A is 2 months, which is what I mention in my interview. They are aware and OK with this.
For my new job I need to relocate. I have some health concerns(not major) that I need to address. I know moving into a new job requires extra work and more focus and I need clean bill of health. If I am able to reduce my notice period of 2 months to 3 weeks, I will get a much needed 1 month break.
- Should I take a month long break,the Company B wanted me to join as soon as possible?
Sources inside Company B advise me to join earlier if possible.
- How will I explain my one month gap for joining when I submit my experience letter from Company A upon joining Company B?

If you need to submit a relieving letter not mentioning the break to B is simply not an option. As for whether you should request/demand a break, that's a personal choice that you have to make yourself.

The notice period in company A is 2 months, which is what I mention in
my interview. They are aware and OK with this.
Since company B is aware of the your notice period and are OK with you joining after 2 months, you need not worry about joining early. If B were desperate to have you join early, they would have offered to buy out your notice period.
Should I take a month long break,the Company B wanted me to join as
soon as possible?
Any company would want you to join as soon as possible. Being an experienced resource, you must have been hired for a specific project and client. They would expect to start billing the client(if it's a services company, business if it's a captive) for you, as soon as possible.
How will I explain my one month gap for joining when I submit my
experience letter from Company A upon joining Company B?
In my opinion the only reasonable thing to do is:
Inform the company B that you'd be getting relieved from A early, but joining them after a month. Since you are getting relieved early from A because of medical reasons, it wouldn't be difficult to state the same reason to A's HR.
Don't try to hide this from B, it could pose problems during joining formalities, when they validate your experience from supplied documentary proofs.

@Vin..Thanks for your input,but i really dont want to come across to them as a sick person,won't it put off my new employer that I have health issues,can they withdraw my offer.

I don't think they would withdraw offer just for that. Also you are well withing your rights to have some time off before you join a new job. I have been doing this since start of my career and I am into my 4th job now. All the reason I ever gave was that I want to have some vacation time before getting into a new thing.
– Vin
Apr 13 '16 at 7:22
Are your health issues protected from discrimination by law? If not, they might say that you had failed to disclose something relevant to the job and that was grounds for withdrawing the offer. Then you'd need lawyers etc. to fight that. I expect they will be reasonable, but we can't predict for you if they will withdraw the offer or not.
