Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for rhinitis, finding that there was no current diagnosis of rhinitis and that the evidence did not support a link between the claimed condition and service.
The deciding factor: The September 2023 VA medical examination found no history or current diagnosis of rhinitis, and the examiner opined that it was less likely than not related to service.
