Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claims for service connection for bilateral hearing loss and for a compensable rating for chronic sinusitis and chronic rhinitis, as there was no evidence of a current disability or symptoms meeting the criteria for a compensable rating.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support the presence of a current disability or meet the criteria for a compensable rating based on the frequency and severity of symptoms reported by the Veteran.
