Abrasion of unsp external genital organs, female, sequela

This code describes the long-term effects or complications arising from a past abrasion injury to the unspecified external female genital organs. It indicates that the initial injury has healed, but residual issues such as scarring, chronic pain, or functional impairment are still present.

Use this code when documenting a patient encounter for follow-up care related to a previous abrasion of the external female genitalia, where the current condition is a direct consequence of that past injury. This applies when the acute phase of the abrasion has passed, and the patient is being treated for sequelae.

• Assign this code only after the acute phase of the abrasion has concluded.
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the previous abrasion.
• Do not use this code for initial treatment of an acute abrasion; use the acute injury code instead.
