Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for a rating in excess of 10 percent for right foot plantar fasciitis as there was no evidence of unilateral plantar fasciitis with no relief from both non-surgical and surgical treatment.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran did not have unilateral, right foot plantar fasciitis with no relief from surgical treatment, which is required for a higher 20 percent rating under DC 5269.
