Remanded (sent back)
The appeal is remanded to obtain an addendum opinion from a dermatologist or allergist regarding the nature and etiology of all skin conditions present during the pendency of the claim.
The deciding factor: The August 2025 addendum opinion did not substantially comply with prior Board remand directives, as it was not provided by a dermatologist or allergist and did not address all diagnosed skin conditions.
