Denied
The Board denied a rating in excess of 10 percent for the Veteran's service-connected onychomycosis as it did not meet or more closely approximate the criteria required for a higher rating.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's onychomycosis involved less than 20 percent of the total body area and no exposed areas, and there was no evidence of systemic therapy over the past year.
