Blister (nonthermal) of vagina and vulva, sequela

This code signifies a healed or residual effect from a previously sustained non-thermal blister on the external female genitalia (vulva) or within the birth canal (vagina). It indicates that the original injury has resolved, but there are lasting consequences or complications directly attributable to that past blister.

Use this code when documenting a patient presenting with a current condition or symptom that is a direct result of a prior non-thermal blister on the vulva or vagina. This could include scarring, chronic pain, altered sensation, or other long-term sequelae after the initial blister has healed. It is appropriate for follow-up encounters where the focus is on managing these persistent effects.

• Always use in conjunction with a code describing the specific sequela (e.g., scar, chronic pain).
• Ensure the medical record clearly links the current condition to a past non-thermal blister of the vagina or vulva.
• Do not use for acute blisters; this code is exclusively for residual effects.
