Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for a skin disorder affecting the Veteran's genitals and/or groin to obtain an addendum opinion regarding its relationship to active service.
The deciding factor: The Board concluded that a remand is needed for an addendum opinion as the December 2021 VA examination did not address whether nevi in the groin area are related to active service, including genital warts diagnosed in November 2004.
