Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

As the stone cause recurrent pain and infection. Better to go for surgical removal of the stone. You can either go minimal procedures like ESWL (extra corporal short wave lithotrypsy) where stone is crushed using high intensity acoustic pulse with out making an incision. Consult a urologist and he will direct you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
