Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for increased ratings for headaches, right hip limitation of extension, and right hip limitation of flexion as they did not meet the criteria for a compensable rating.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's headache disability did not produce characteristic prostrating attacks, and his right hip limitations did not meet the criteria for a higher rating under applicable diagnostic codes.
