Denied
The Board denied increased ratings for the Veteran's right total knee arthroscopy and right knee instability, as well as a separate rating for right knee instability prior to December 1, 2020.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support an increase in disability ratings due to the limitations of motion and stability of the Veteran's right knee, which were consistent with the current ratings assigned.
