The Board denied service connection for erectile dysfunction, an increased rating for tinnitus, and a compensable rating for right hand trauma.
The deciding factor: There was no competent evidence of record indicating the Veteran had a current diagnosis of erectile dysfunction. The maximum schedular rating for tinnitus has been assigned, and there was no legal basis to award a higher rating. For the right hand trauma, the Veteran's disability did not warrant a compensable rating.
