This code signifies an injury to any flexor muscle, fascia, or tendon of the left little finger, specifically occurring at the wrist or hand level. This includes sprains, strains, tears, or other non-specified trauma to these structures.

Use this code for the initial treatment of a patient presenting with a new injury to the flexor apparatus of their left little finger, affecting the wrist or hand region. This applies to acute events such as a sudden pull, twist, or direct impact causing damage to these tissues.

• Ensure the documentation specifies the left little finger and the injury location is at the wrist or hand level.
• Verify that the injury is to a flexor structure (muscle, fascia, or tendon) and not an extensor.
• The "A" at the end indicates an initial encounter for this specific injury. Subsequent encounters will require different seventh characters.
