Hi,
I understand your concern regarding this. It is good that you were able to identify the cause of your pain. However, if the symptom persists, you may benefit from a referral to a kidney specialist for proper management.  Medical management and even surgical removal of any abnormal part may be indicated.  Take care and do keep us posted.
