Skin Rash (DC 7806) is evaluated under 38 C.F.R. § 4.118 using the skin rating framework. Because it is rated by analogy to the general schedule, the 4 levels below describe the body-system criteria the VA applies — the percentage assigned to Skin Rash depends on the specific findings (range of motion, frequency, severity, or functional loss) documented at the C&P exam and in the medical record.
