Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for a right wrist condition to obtain an addendum opinion addressing whether the Veteran's service-connected right shoulder strain aggravated her claimed right wrist condition.
The deciding factor: A remand is necessary as the December 2020 VA examination did not address whether the Veteran's service-connected disability aggravated her claimed condition, which is required for a proper secondary service connection claim.
