HI
Thank for asking to HCM
Look you have two different condition at time and that is not related with each other , now lets talk about the orthopedic condition, the numbness in hand may due to cervical spine problem, for this you need to go for x-ray study of cervical spine, now for the cardiac condition, the echo report is suggestive of mitral valve and tricuspid valve pathology (Lesions) regurgitation means back flow of blood from the valve opening, if you are scaring to this then it wont work, you will have to face the problem, and need treatment, every thing will be alright, have nice day
