The Board has denied service connection for a bilateral foot condition and remanded the issue of service connection for right hip tendonitis. The denial is based on the lack of evidence of a current disability, while the remand is due to insufficient medical records to determine if the hip condition is related to service or other disabilities.
The deciding factor: The Veteran does not have a currently diagnosed bilateral foot condition and there are no sufficient medical records to establish a link between his right hip tendonitis and service or any other disability.
