Partly granted
The Board granted the restoration of the 10 percent rating for maxillary and frontal sinusitis and rhinitis, effective November 1, 2024.
The deciding factor: The May 2024 VA examination was found to be inadequate, leading to an improper reduction in ratings. The record does not reflect improvement that would justify the reduction.
