Brief Answer:
Pain is due to inflammation of Ureter (Ureteritis)

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for query .

Based on the facts that you have posted you had undergone Ureteroscopy for removal of stone in ureter and kidney and DJ stent was placed which was removed after 5 weeks but still having pain .

The pain that you have now is due to inflammation of Ureter (Ureteritis) caused due to foreign body reaction to the stent .It subsides gradually and in some individuals takes 3-4 weeks .

However you may get your Ultrasound Scanning Of Abdomen repeated to be rest assured of all the stones being removed.

Till then ensure to take anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac and antibiotics like Norflox twice daily .

Ensure to drink more water.

Hope I have answered your query ,please feel free to ask if you have more questions, I shall be happy to help you
Thanks and Regards.
