Question?: You have not clearly asked a question. If at your age you have now had two kidney stones, clearly you have a disorder leading to stone formation. There are many of these, so you need to see a specialist to figure out what you have and how to treat it to minimize the chances of further stone formation.

This can happen: Kidney stones can, and frequently do, recur, even if stones have been physically removed from a kidney on a prior occasion. This may be due to a chronic physiologic problem that is acquired or genetic in nature.
