Granted
The Board granted a 10 percent disability rating for the Veteran's service-connected cervical spine, finding that there was functional loss due to pain causing additional disability beyond that reflected on range of motion measurements.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record persuasively weighed in favor of a 10 percent rating, but no higher, for the Veteran's service-connected cervical spine based on painful motion and functional loss due to pain and weakness.
