Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the claim for service connection of a right lower leg strain because the VA's medical opinion was inadequate. The Veteran will get another examination.
The deciding factor: The VA examiner's opinion did not adequately address the Veteran's symptoms and the nature of his current condition compared to his in-service injury.
