Granted
The Board granted service connection for lichen simplex chronicus and prurigo, resolving reasonable doubt in the Appellant's favor.
The deciding factor: The examiner provided an opinion that it is at least as likely as not that the Veteran's lichen simplex chronicus and prurigo were related to his active-duty service, despite no evidence of recurrence prior to 2014.
