Custom Drawer in react navigation

Question

In my react native project I have custom drawer with screens like screen1 and screen2. Screen1 is used for stack navigator and in Screen 2 it contains tab navigator. How to enable this kind of nesting navigation.

I am using react navigation 5 in order to build custom drawer.

Here is my code:

  import { DrawerContentScrollView, DrawerItem } from "@react-navigation/drawer";
  .............
  render = () => {
    <DrawerContentScrollView {...props}>
    <View style={styles.menuContainer}>
    <View style={[styles.menuItemsCard, { backgroundColor: "#fff2df" }]}>
    <View style={[styles.circleContainer, { backgroundColor: "#FFC56F" }]}>
    <Icon travel name="suitcase" type="font-awesome" color="#fbae41" />
    </View>
            <DrawerItem
             label="Screen1"
             labelStyle={{ color: "#fbae41", fontSize: 10 }}
                            onPress={() => {
                                props.navigation.navigate("PatientInfo");
                            }}
                        />
            </View>
            <View style={[styles.itemCard, { backgroundColor: "#EFFFD5" }]}>
            <View style={[styles.circleContainer, { backgroundColor: "#b5ff39" }]}>
            <Icon Medical name="briefcase" type="font-awesome" color="#609806"></Icon>
            </View>
                        <DrawerItem
                            label="Screen2"
                            labelStyle={{ color: "#609806" }}
                            onPress={() => {
                                props.navigation.navigate("Diagnose");
                            }}
                        />
                    </View>
                </View>
    </DrawerContentScrollView>
  }

mainNaviagtor:

const MainNavigator = () => {
return (
    <Drawer.Navigator drawerContent={props => <Menu {...props} />} drawerStyle={{ width: 
 "100%" }}>
        <Stack.Screen name="Screen1" component={PatientInfoScreen} screenOptions={headerOptions} />
         <Stack.Screen name="Screen2" component={DiagnoseScreen} /> //Here i need tab navigator

        
    </Drawer.Navigator>
);
};

My older code: (react navigation 4.x)

createDrawerNavigator(
{
    Screen1: {
        screen: createStackNavigator(
            {
                PatientInfo: { screen: PatientInfoScreen }
            },
            headerOptions
        )
    },

    Screen2: {
        screen: createBottomTabNavigator({
            Diagnose: {
                screen: diagnoseNavigation
            },
            Causes: { screen: causeNavigation },
        })
    },
})

How should I solve this issue? I also referred to the https://reactnavigation.org/docs/nesting-navigators/.

Any one please help me to solve this issue.
