Yes, passing stones may cause soreness at the urethra. Soreness may also occur if there's a urinary infection.

Treating kidney stones is not always by surgery. Medical treatment can be used to dissolve or prevent stone formation.

Regarding your past history of stones and your current complain, it's advised to have a urine analysis and kidney ultrasound. Early detection and treatment of urinary infection or stone can be confined to oral medications.

Hope that was helpful.
Regards.
