Inj msl/fasc/tnd post grp at thi lev, left thigh, sequela

This code signifies a long-term or late effect resulting from a past injury to a specific muscle, fascia, or tendon within the posterior compartment of the left thigh. This includes conditions like chronic pain, weakness, or functional limitation directly attributable to a previous injury that has healed but left residual issues.

Apply this code when documenting a patient presenting with persistent symptoms or complications from an old, resolved injury to the hamstring muscles (e.g., biceps femoris, semitendinosus, semimembranosus) or their associated fascia/tendons in the left thigh. This is appropriate when the acute injury has passed, and the current encounter addresses the lasting consequences.

• Always assign an additional code to describe the specific sequela (e.g., chronic pain, muscle weakness).
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to a past injury of the posterior left thigh muscles/tendons.
• Do not use for acute or current injuries; this code is exclusively for sequelae.
