Nothing happens, if you have some medical reasons then you can submit the medical. I have seen that internal exams are taken 2-3 times because of missing students. Teachers should be provided the reason for absence in the exam and they would arrange another day for internals and sometimes teachers gives the option of giving internal exams if students scores less (to help the students in improving their internal marks). But if you know that you haven't scored well then you'll have to score good in semester exam so that you'll get good marks and won't fail.
