Granted
The Board granted an increased disability evaluation to 10 percent for allergic rhinitis with a deviated nasal septum.
The deciding factor: The evidence supports that the Veteran has a traumatic deviation resulting in at least 50 percent blockage of both nasal passages, warranting a 10 percent rating under Diagnostic Code 6522.
