Denied
The veteran's claim for an increased disability rating for allergic rhinitis was denied because the condition did not meet the criteria for a compensable rating.
The deciding factor: The VA examinations found that the veteran's allergic rhinitis did not manifest with greater than 50 percent obstruction of the nasal passage on both sides, complete obstruction on either side, or nasal polyps.
