The Board denied service connection for incontinence and an increased rating for chronic cervicitis, finding no evidence of a current disability related to the veteran's period of active service.
The deciding factor: VA medical records did not show any current disability manifested by incontinence or any symptoms of chronic cervicitis that required continuous treatment.
