Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for a right elbow disability to include tendonitis and lateral epicondylitis for an adequate medical examination.
The deciding factor: The July 2024 and March 2025 VA opinions are found inadequate, and there is no evidence of a nexus between the Veteran's current right elbow disability and his active service.
