Q: How do I find out if there is no physical or technical damage to my iphone 5S?

As long as it is running well and you can do the basic functions with it - I would say that it is ok
There is no "operating test" that you can run at the user level that will give you a check of the software per se

Also is there a way to find out if the phone is genuine? What I mean to ask is how do I check if the phone is not stolen by somebody and it has not passed through many users before being sold to me? This will help in returning the phone back to the user who sold me if it is a stolen one (that can land me in problem in any future date). I searched and found that the phone is an international purchase and the warranty is already expired. You views please.

With other products, this can be solved by using the 3-prong power cord plugged into a properly-grounded AC outlet. The iPhone power adapter does not have a ground and, therefore, the problem can not be alleviated. If the problem is sufficiently distracting, you should either unplug the iPhone while you are using it, or wear rubber gloves.
