Denied
The Board denied an initial compensable disability rating prior to March 30, 2020 for the right knee disability due to a lack of evidence showing painful motion or other symptoms warranting a compensable rating.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's complaints were primarily related to hip pain and there was no evidence of chronic right knee pain or limitation of motion that would support a compensable rating under applicable criteria.
