Unsp inj unsp musc/fasc/tend at shldr/up arm, r arm, sqla

This code signifies a long-term consequence or residual condition resulting from an unspecified injury to the muscles, fascia, or tendons of the right shoulder and upper arm. It indicates that the original acute injury has healed, but the patient continues to experience symptoms or functional limitations directly attributable to that past trauma.

Apply this code when documenting a chronic or residual condition of the right shoulder/upper arm musculature, fascia, or tendons, where the specific nature of the original injury is unknown or not specified. This is appropriate for follow-up encounters addressing ongoing pain, weakness, or restricted movement stemming from a previous, ill-defined injury to these structures.

• Requires a seventh character "S" to indicate sequela, meaning the condition is a late effect of a previous injury.
• Only use when the specific muscle, fascia, or tendon involved, and the specific type of injury (e.g., strain, tear), are not documented.
• Prioritize more specific codes if the exact nature of the sequela and the affected structure are known.
