Granted
The veteran's service connection claims for left and right ankle conditions, left hip femoral acetabular impingement syndrome, and degenerative arthritis of the lumbar spine with intervertebral disc syndrome were granted.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's disabilities are proximately due to his service-connected plantar fasciitis and Morton's neuroma.
