Denied
The Board denied increased ratings for the Veteran's service-connected right hip conditions and remanded a claim for service connection for migraine headaches.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support higher ratings, as the Veteran's symptoms were within the range of the current 10 percent rating for limitation of extension and noncompensable for impairment of thigh. Migraine headaches were remanded for further development.
