It's generally discouraged (to ask again), especially that soon after, as it can split the conversation.

Of course, if it has been a significant amount of time since you asked and your question is thoroughly buried by other conversations, it's probably a good idea to ask again.

It was a few hours but not buried by any stretch. I wasn't sure why if it was something wrong with the question or something else.

I've noticed the time it takes to get a response will often depend quite a bit on what time of day you ask. It's generally better to let is stew for the better part of a day (unless it's urgent) as timezone and culture differences can often mean the people who can help you just haven't seen it yet.
