Denied
The Board denied service connection for various disorders and a rating in excess of 10 percent for pseudofolliculitis barbae, as the evidence did not support the claims.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms were found to be less than 5% of his body or exposed areas, and no systemic therapy was required. Additionally, there was no current disability diagnosed during the appeal period for the claimed disorders.
