yes. surgery. otherwise you'll have murmurs either all the time or occasionally depending on the leakiness. you must certainly see a doctor. there are no external treatment for this because protein will be used for muscle and other such things. your heart valves are formed while still fetal and grow with your body for about 30 years. repairs almost completely stop at 15 because stem cells are rareified. this is why scientists look into stem cell research. i cant remember who but the japanese fellow that cloned the first dog also started research into stem cells for the heart and was not only able to repair the hearts of frogs, sheep, mice, pigs, etc. but he also grew a fully functional human heart in a pig with all but O+ blood types. basically just talk to a doctor and poke around. your heart is literally vital. dont mess around or hold back for any reason. search until you are better.
