Unsp inj flexor musc/fasc/tend at forarm lv, right arm, sqla

This code indicates a long-term or late effect of an unspecified injury to a flexor muscle, fascia, or tendon in the right forearm, excluding the flexor pollicis longus and other specified flexors. The initial injury has resolved, but residual symptoms or conditions persist.

Use this code when documenting a patient presenting with ongoing pain, weakness, limited range of motion, or other chronic issues in the right forearm due to a past, unspecified flexor muscle/tendon injury. This applies when the original injury is no longer acute and the current encounter addresses the lasting consequences.

• Requires a seventh character "S" for sequela, indicating a late effect.
• Do not use for acute injuries; instead, select an appropriate acute injury code.
• Ensure documentation clearly links current symptoms to a previous, unspecified flexor injury in the right forearm.
