Hello! Welcome to HCM.
Yes, these can be stones.
In my clinic, to such patients with recurrent stones, I advise metabolic workup, 24 hours urinanalysis, serum uric acid & serum calcium.
Also, if such stones are preserved, you can send them to laboratory for stone analysis.
With this I can give further treatment to prevent stone formation in future.
Hope this information is useful.
Wish you healthy life.
Thanks. Regards.
