Denied
The Board denied a rating in excess of 10 percent prior to August 7, 2023, for penile papules as the evidence did not show that the Veteran's skin disorder affected more than 5 percent of his body or required systemic therapy.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's condition did not meet the criteria for a higher rating due to the lack of characteristic lesions affecting more than 5% of the total body area and no evidence of systemic therapy.
