Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for increased ratings for right ankle disability, tinea corporis, and right forearm scars.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record did not support a higher rating as it showed limited motion in the right ankle and minimal skin conditions that did not meet the criteria for a compensable rating.
