Could Kidney Stones Cause Burning Urinary Sensations?

I have burning sensation inside the tip and under the head of my penis. It burns when I urinate. My abdomen feels tender too. My hips and lower back feel tender as well. I do have a history of kidney stones but I've never passed one that felt like this before. Any thoughts?

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

There are many symptoms related to the location and size of kidney stones. If the stone is too large to pass easily, pain continues as the muscles in the wall of the tiny ureter try to squeeze the stone along into the bladder. One may feel the need to urinate more often or feel a burning sensation during urination. In a man, pain may move down to the tip of the penis. If the stone is close to the lower end of the ureter at the opening into the bladder, a person will frequently feel like they have not fully completed urination.
