S31.531S
ICD-10-CMPuncture wound without foreign body of unspecified external genital organs, male, sequela
This code signifies a past injury to the male external genitalia, specifically a puncture wound that did not involve a foreign object. The injury has since healed, but the code indicates that there are lingering effects or complications stemming from that original wound. The exact external genital organ affected is not specified.
This code is appropriate when documenting a patient presenting with a current condition or symptom that is a direct consequence of a previously sustained puncture wound to the male external genitalia. Examples include chronic pain, scarring, nerve damage, or functional impairment directly attributable to the old injury. It should be used when the acute phase of the injury has passed.
