The Veteran's left leg disorder, rated at 40 percent prior to August 17, 2009 and at 60 percent thereafter, has been granted. The right leg disorder, currently rated at 40 percent, does not meet the criteria for a higher rating.

The Veteran's claim for a rating in excess of 40 percent for right leg thrombophlebitis was denied. The Veteran also sought a compensable rating for his right leg scar, which the Board found not warranted based on the evidence of record. Finally, the Veteran's service connection claim for a left leg disability was denied as there is no persuasive medical evidence to support that the condition began during or is otherwise related to his military service.,The Veteran sought a compensable rating for his right leg scar and a rating in excess of 40 percent for his right leg thrombophlebitis. The Board found against him on both counts, stating there was no evidence of persistent edema or subcutaneous induration, stasis pigmentation or eczema, and persistent ulceration; or massive board-like edema with constant pain at rest in the right leg. For his left leg disability, the Veteran's claim for service connection was denied as there is no persuasive medical evidence to support that the condition began during or is otherwise related to his military service.

The Board has remanded the case due to scheduling issues with VA examinations and for extraschedular consideration of a TDIU.

The Board denied the Veteran's claim for TDIU on an extraschedular basis prior to December 4, 2019, finding that his service-connected disabilities alone did not prevent him from obtaining and maintaining substantially gainful employment.

The Veteran's claim for increased disability ratings and TDIU on an extraschedular basis is being remanded due to incomplete development. The case will be further developed to determine the appropriate rating for his service-connected conditions, including hearing loss and left leg post-phlebitic syndrome.
