Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's appeal for a compensable rating for his low back disability, as there was no evidence of limitation of motion or painful motion that would warrant a 10 percent evaluation.
The deciding factor: The VA examination and medical records did not show any symptoms that would support a compensable rating under the applicable diagnostic codes.
