ICD-10-CMPuncture wound with foreign body of right great toe without damage to nail, initial encounter
This code signifies a penetrating injury to the right great toe caused by a foreign object, such as a splinter, glass, or metal fragment, that remains embedded in the tissue. The injury does not involve damage to the toenail itself.
Apply this code when documenting the initial treatment for a patient presenting with a foreign body embedded in their right great toe, and the nail plate is intact. This is appropriate for cases like stepping on a nail or a piece of glass that penetrates the skin and remains.
