1. Do I need [surgery, an operation]?(OK).
/ No, but you need [hospitalizing, to be hospitalized, to be in the hospital, being in the hospital]. [* "Being in the hospital" is incorrect, isn't it?] (Yes, delete that one).
2. This stain/spot won't [come out, disappear]. (Disappear doesn't sound right in this context. It usually takes work to remove a stain. It doesn't just magically disappear).
3. He went out [for, to take/to have] a walk.
4. We went out [for, to get] some fresh air. (Take and have are not incorrect. Get is more common).
5. A lot of people die from/of AIDS every year. (OK).
6. He died from/of the wound received in combat.
