Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for a new VA examination to assess the current nature and severity of the Veteran's service-connected right wrist disability, as the March 2022 VA examiner's opinions were found inadequate.
The deciding factor: The March 2022 VA examiner's opinions regarding additional limitations during periods of repeated use and flare-ups were deemed inadequate due to lack of supporting evidence for the conclusions drawn.
