Denied

The Board denied an initial rating in excess of 10 percent for the veteran's service-connected dermatitis, finding that the condition did not meet the criteria for a higher rating.

The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's dermatitis did not affect more than 20% of his body or exposed areas and did not require systemic therapy.
