Denied
The Board denied an initial rating in excess of 10 percent for allergic rhinitis as the Veteran's condition did not meet the criteria for a higher rating.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's allergic rhinitis manifested with greater than 50 percent obstruction of the nasal passage on both sides and complete obstruction on the left side, but there were no nasal polyps to warrant a higher rating.
