Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for a new VA examination to evaluate the severity of the Veteran's eczema with tinea pedis, as the previous examinations did not adequately assess the condition during an active period.
The deciding factor: The previous VA examinations were inadequate because they failed to consider the Veteran's reports of flare-ups and did not provide separate percentages for active periods of the skin disability.
