Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for a higher initial evaluation for allergic rhinitis, an increased rating for pseudofolliculitis barbae (PFB), and service connection for sinusitis.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a compensable evaluation for allergic rhinitis or a higher rating for PFB. There was no current disability of chronic sinusitis during the review period.
