Hello...don't worry just need precaution and regular follow up... As there is not much obstruction or leak in your valve... So just need good follow up at least 6 monthly.... penicillin injection minimum needed to b take upto 40 yr ... Preferably life long .. Rest medication as per your valve status and symptoms...
