Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for an increased rating for right upper extremity carpal tunnel syndrome and service connection for bilateral plantar fasciitis.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding of moderate or severe incomplete paralysis for the carpal tunnel syndrome, nor was there sufficient evidence to establish a link between the plantar fasciitis and active service.
