Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for a right hip disability and pseudofolliculitis barbae, but remanded the issues of entitlement to an initial disability rating in excess of 10 percent for left knee strain and right lower extremity radiculopathy of the sciatic nerve.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the evidence supported service connection for a right hip disability and pseudofolliculitis barbae, but additional evidentiary development was needed to properly rate the remaining issues.
