The veteran's service-connected condylomata acuminata has been rated at a noncompensable level since July 11, 1991. The Board found that the condition is productive of pain and itching over an extensive area but does not meet criteria for higher ratings.
The deciding factor: The medical evidence did not show constant exudation or itching, extensive lesions, or marked disfigurement, which are required for a rating in excess of 10 percent under Diagnostic Codes 7819 or 7806.
