Poisn by keratolyt/keratplst/hair trmt drug, slf-hrm, sqla

This code signifies the long-term effects or complications arising from a deliberate act of self-poisoning using substances like keratolytics, keratoplastics, or other hair treatment products. These sequelae can manifest as persistent skin damage, systemic toxicity, or other chronic health issues resulting from the initial acute poisoning event.

Apply this code when documenting a patient presenting with residual conditions or chronic problems directly attributable to a past intentional self-harm incident involving hair treatment chemicals. This is appropriate for follow-up encounters addressing the lasting impact, rather than the acute poisoning itself.

• Always sequence this code after the code(s) for the specific sequela being treated.
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the past intentional self-harm event involving these specific substances.
• Do not use this code for the initial acute poisoning episode; instead, use the appropriate acute poisoning code with the "A" (initial encounter) seventh character.
