T23.531S
ICD-10-CMCorrosion of first degree of multiple right fingers (nail), not including thumb, sequela
This code signifies a first-degree corrosion (chemical burn) affecting multiple fingers on the right hand, excluding the thumb. The burn specifically involves the nail or nail bed and represents a long-term complication or residual effect of the initial injury.
Apply this code when documenting the sequela of a superficial chemical burn to the nails of multiple right fingers (not the thumb). This would be used for follow-up encounters after the acute phase of the injury, addressing ongoing issues related to the nail damage.
