Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection for hemorrhoids with impairment of sphincter control and rectal prolapse to obtain an addendum opinion that adequately considers all relevant evidence.
The deciding factor: The July 2024 examiner's opinion was found inadequate due to a failure to consider significant post-service medical history, and the Board finds it necessary to remand for corrective action.
