Partly granted
The Board denied a higher rating for right foot metatarsalgia and granted a separate 10 percent rating for right foot plantar fasciitis.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's right foot metatarsalgia was rated at the maximum schedular rating, while non-surgical treatment did not relieve symptoms of his right foot plantar fasciitis, warranting a separate 10 percent rating.
