Secondary Conditions for Sinusitis
There are 5 secondary conditions linked to Sinusitis that may qualify for VA disability compensation. If you have a service-connected rating for sinusitis, these conditions could be filed as secondary claims to increase your combined disability rating.
What is a secondary VA disability claim?
A secondary condition is a disability caused or aggravated by a condition you're already service-connected for. For example, if sinusitis is service-connected and it causes or worsens allergic rhinitis, you can file Allergic rhinitis as a secondary claim. The VA requires a medical nexus linking the two conditions.
