Frankly, I think you have a malpractice suit--the resident refused to examine you when you reported symptoms, with lasting and dangerous effects. And I think you should bring one, not just for any money, but because it might get a point through: if you don't sue for malpractice, he'll never even know he fucked you up.
I actually wouldn't be interested in bringing one. I don't even remember the name of the resident, for one thing. If I could have anything related to the incident, I'd like about ten minutes to talk to him and say, listen, if you're going to be a competent doctor at all, you're really going to have to learn that if someone who already has chronic pain tells you they're really sore, check it out. Maybe it's nothing. So what? Doctors should always operate on the "better safe than sorry" principle.
