A member asked:

Had a test ran and it shows that i have a mild mitral and tricuspid valve issue,but dr said not to worry about it for 20 to 30 years should i be worry?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Valves: Mild mitral and tricuspid insufficiency are very common and often stay stable throughout life. If your doctor is comfortable with your status and encouraging you not to worry, I'd advise taking that advice.
