Remanded (sent back)
The Board is remanding the claim for a new VA examination to address the nature and severity of the Veteran's acne vulgaris, including the January 2020 lay statement.
The deciding factor: The February 2020 and April 2021 VA examinations were found inadequate due to their failure to address the Veteran's January 2020 lay statement.
