Strong recommendation to drop a course in high school

Hello, My son recently suffered a medical condition and was out of school for 2 whole weeks and then started for half days. After 5 weeks he is completely recovered. Now he has a ton of work to catch up with as he is a junior, in a very demanding program. Some of his teachers are accommodating his recovery while some not so much. One teacher is strongly recommending him to drop one of his courses. Does having a lighter course load reflect negatively when applying for colleges? He does not want to go against the wishes of his teachers as they are the ones who will finally grade him and write his recommendations. If he drops a course he will have 1 free period for the rest of the year. Are there any suggestions of how he can use that period so it is meaningful and also looks good for college admissions?
