Laceration w/o fb of unsp toe w/o damage to nail, init

This code signifies a cut or tear to an unspecified toe that does not involve a foreign object embedded in the wound and where the toenail remains intact. It specifically denotes the initial treatment or encounter for this injury.

Apply this code for a patient presenting with a simple laceration to any toe, without documentation specifying a foreign body or nail bed involvement. This is appropriate for the first time the patient is seen for this particular injury.

• Ensure documentation explicitly states "without foreign body" and "without damage to nail."
• Only use the "A" seventh character for the initial encounter for this injury.
• If the specific toe is known, a more precise code should be selected (e.g., S91.111A for great toe).
