Granted
The Board granted an initial disability rating of 30 percent for chronic sinusitis based on the Veteran experiencing more than six non-incapacitating episodes per year of sinusitis characterized by headaches, pain, and purulent discharge or crusting.
The deciding factor: The probative evidence most closely approximates the criteria for a 30 percent initial disability rating as the Veteran has suffered more than six non-incapacitating episodes per year of sinusitis characterized by headaches, pain, and purulent discharge or crusting.
