Corros second degree of single r finger except thumb, sqla

This code indicates a second-degree burn injury to a single finger on the right hand, excluding the thumb, where the initial injury has healed but residual effects or complications persist. This type of burn involves the epidermis and dermis, characterized by blistering, pain, and redness, with the "sequela" aspect referring to long-term issues like scarring, contractures, or chronic pain.

Use this code when documenting follow-up care for a patient who previously sustained a second-degree burn to a single right finger (not the thumb) and is now presenting with a residual condition directly attributable to that past injury. This includes scenarios where the patient is being treated for scar revision, limited range of motion, or persistent nerve damage resulting from the original burn.

• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to a past second-degree burn of a single right finger (not thumb).
• Do not use for initial burn encounters or for active burn treatment; this code is exclusively for sequelae.
• Specify the exact finger if known and documented, though the code itself is for "single right finger."
