Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for a compensable rating for pseudofolliculitis barbae and service connection for dermatosis of the hands, but remanded the claim for service connection for a neurological condition.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a compensable rating or service connection for the claimed conditions due to insufficient symptomatology and lack of medical evidence.
