Denied
The Board denied a compensable disability rating for the veteran's service-connected allergic rhinitis because the symptoms did not meet the required criteria.
The deciding factor: The VA examinations showed that the veteran did not have greater than 50 percent nasal obstruction or complete obstruction on one side, which are necessary for a compensable rating.
