Have lower back pain. Had kidney stones, surgically removed. Am diabetic. Recurrence of kidney stones?
Patient: I am experiencing lower back pain with groin pain that seems to get worse in the late afternoon. I had kidney stones surgically  removed about 25 years ago as the whole urinary tract was completely blocked. I am also diabetic. Is this a reoccurrence of kidney stones with different symptoms? At what point should I see my doctor? Doctor: How bad is your pain? is it severe? The chances of you having another kidney stone after 25 years is really high. I suggest see your doctor and get a urinalysis and an ultrasound to see the size of the stone and it will guide you and your doctor on what to do with it. Hope this helps.
