Weakness, foamy urine & scalp bumps

I have been feeling weak from last 3-4 months. Sometimes I notice foam or bubbles in my urine. I also get painful, pimple-like bumps on my scalp/head, especially when I feel stressed. They are painful when I touch them. I would like to know what might be causing these symptoms and whether I need any blood or urine tests.

Hiv related queries

I had a beard trim at a barber shop today. About one minute before me, the barber had trimmed the beard of another man who was over 40 years old. I had an open wound under my beard, and the barber’s scissors touched that wound while trimming my beard. I’m not sure whether there was any blood on the scissors from the previous customer. If that man was HIV-positive and there had been fresh blood on the scissors, could I get HIV from this?😢
