I recently lost my kidney plant and have been experiencing constant, sharp pain at the surgery site, which feels stiff and sometimes worse. I'm concerned it could be appendicitis, but the ER staff dismissed my concerns. What should I do?

In late-stage HIV/AIDS, do you still develop HIV antibodies on a test, and can various factors like poor hygiene, thrush, alcohol, smoking, dry mouth, or dehydration cause a white tongue? If you have Kaposi's sarcoma, which is associated with AIDS, would your complete blood count with differential (CBC with diff) be abnormal, and can you ever not develop HIV antibodies?

I slipped on the ice and landed on my left hip. There is no visible bruising, but it is slightly swollen with small bumps on the skin. The area is very tender to the touch, and I can only get comfortable standing on my opposite leg or lying on my opposite side with a pillow between my knees. Should I continue with rest, ice, and Tylenol, or should I go to the ER?
