Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issues of entitlement to a rating in excess of 10 percent for left and right knee disabilities due to insufficient evidence regarding the functional impairment caused by the Veteran's conditions.
The deciding factor: The November 2023 VA examination did not provide adequate information on the onset of pain during range of motion testing, which is required for proper assessment of the Veteran's service-connected knee disabilities.
