The Board has determined that the veteran's residuals of a right foot fracture are severe and grants a 30 percent disability evaluation.
The deciding factor: The medical evidence shows that the veteran's right foot condition is severe, preventing him from performing daily activities and requiring use of assistive devices like a cane. The VA examination findings support this conclusion.
