Dismissed
The appeal regarding the reduction of the rating for right hip disability was dismissed, and an initial compensable rating for allergic rhinitis was denied.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the reduction in the rating for right hip disability did not occur as a May 2024 decision increased the rating. For allergic rhinitis, there was no evidence of greater than 50% obstruction of nasal passages or polyps.
