Hi,

Welcome to HealthCareMagic.com I am Dr.J.Mariano Anto Bruno Mascarenhas. I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help you.

Stenosis means blood flow is interfered. So you have to worry. The other chronic small vessel changes can be due to this. Please consult a Neurosurgeon at the earliest
