Q: Ongoing Kidney Problems What Should I Do?

I am 20 yrs old, and I have had recurring kidney and bladder infections since I was 4. I had surgery done on my kidneys for reflux 3 years ago, but I still have pain and get infections about every 2 months. The urologist I am seeing now said that the pain I am having is from severe damage and scarring on my kidney. I have also had two surgeries for endometriosis and have had suregery to have part of my intestines taken out. Every doctor I have seen tells me the pain I am having is from all the different scar tissue. Does anyone know if there is a way to fix that? Like, can they take scar tissue off? Anything you know would be helpful - thanks!
