Unsp inj msl/fasc/tnd post grp at thi lev, right thigh, sqla

This code signifies a long-term or late effect of an unspecified injury to the muscles, fascia, or tendons located in the posterior compartment of the right thigh. This includes conditions such as chronic pain, weakness, or functional limitations resulting from a past injury to the hamstrings or other posterior thigh structures.

Utilize this code when documenting the sequelae of an injury to the posterior right thigh muscles, fascia, or tendons where the specific nature of the original injury is unknown or not documented. This is appropriate for follow-up encounters addressing residual problems from a prior, unspecified trauma to this anatomical area.

• Always sequence this code after the code(s) for the specific sequela being treated (e.g., chronic pain, muscle weakness).
• Ensure documentation clearly indicates the injury is to the posterior muscle group of the right thigh and is a sequela.
• Avoid using this code if the original injury's specific type (e.g., strain, tear) is known and documented; instead, use the appropriate sequela code for that specific injury.
