Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have RHD and your mitral valve diameter is decreased. You have mitral valve stenosis. However if you don't have any symptoms then you can wait for some time. You should consult your doctor and check your other parameters. If al are ok then you can wait forsome more time safely.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
