Denied
The veteran's claim for a compensable rating for allergic rhinitis was denied because the condition did not meet the criteria for a higher evaluation.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed that the veteran's allergic rhinitis did not have polyps or greater than 50-percent obstruction of nasal passage on both sides or complete obstruction on one side.
