Unsp injury of musc/fasc/tend prt biceps, right arm, sequela

This code signifies a long-term or residual effect from an unspecified injury to the muscle, fascia, or tendon of the right biceps. It indicates that the initial acute injury has resolved, but the patient continues to experience symptoms or complications directly attributable to that past injury. The specific nature of the original injury to the biceps is not detailed.

Use this code when documenting a patient presenting with ongoing issues, such as pain, weakness, or limited range of motion, in their right biceps that are directly linked to a previous, unspecified injury. This applies when the acute phase of the original injury has passed, and the current encounter addresses the lasting consequences.

• Always ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to a past injury of the right biceps.
• Do not use for acute injuries; instead, select an acute injury code from the S46.2 category.
• This "S" (sequela) character indicates the seventh character for a subsequent encounter for a condition that is a sequela.
