Therefore, service connection for this condition is also denied.
The deciding factor: There is no persuasive medical evidence showing the presence of current diagnoses of left lower extremity tinea pedis or right lower extremity tinea pedis/tinea cruris at any time during the appeal period.,The Veteran's service treatment records do not show a diagnosis of a movement disorder, and there is no credible evidence that it began during active military service.
