With 50-percent obstruction of the nasal passage on both sides or complete obstruction on one side	10
6504   Nose, loss of part of, or scars:
Exposing both nasal passages	30
Loss of part of one ala, or other obvious disfigurement	10
Note: Or evaluate as DC 7800, scars, disfiguring, head, face, or neck.
6510   Sinusitis, pansinusitis, chronic.
6511   Sinusitis, ethmoid, chronic.
6512   Sinusitis, frontal, chronic.

Three or more incapacitating episodes per year of sinusitis requiring prolonged (lasting four to six weeks) antibiotic treatment, or; more than six non-incapacitating episodes per year of sinusitis characterized by headaches, pain, and purulent discharge or crusting	30
One or two incapacitating episodes per year of sinusitis requiring prolonged (lasting four to six weeks) antibiotic treatment, or; three to six non-incapacitating episodes per year of sinusitis characterized by headaches, pain, and purulent discharge or crusting	10
