Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the matter for a new examination of the Veteran's left knee to address reported additional pain with prolonged standing or walking, or squatting.
The deciding factor: The July 2022 VA examination was found inadequate as it did not account for the Veteran's report of functional loss due to pain with repeated use over time.
