Denied
The Board denied a higher rating for the veteran's foot conditions, stating that the maximum schedular rating has already been assigned.
The deciding factor: The Veteran is in receipt of the maximum schedular rating for MN and the competent medical and lay evidence of record does not reflect that the Veteran's MN is manifested by symptomatology that is not reflected by the schedular criteria.
