Thnks for query .

The pain in left flank in a individual with known history of kidney stones should be mostly due to recurrence of kidney stone and needs to be investigated .

Consult qualified Urologist for clinical and digital rectal examination and get following basic
tests done to confirm the diagnosis.
1) Urine routine and culture.
2) Ultrasound scanning of abdomen and pelvis
3) Serum PSA.

In the mean while continue taking antibiotics and pain killers .Ensure to drink more water .

Further treatment will depend upon result of these tests and final diagnosis.
