T23.041S
ICD-10-CMBurn of unspecified degree of multiple right fingers (nail), including thumb, sequela
This code signifies a burn injury affecting multiple fingers on the right hand, including the thumb, where the specific depth of the burn was not documented. The "sequela" seventh character indicates that this encounter is for complications or conditions arising directly from the initial burn, after the acute phase of healing has passed.
Use this code when a patient presents for follow-up care, rehabilitation, or treatment of long-term effects such as scarring, contractures, or chronic pain resulting from an unspecified degree burn to multiple right fingers, including the thumb. It is appropriate when the initial burn event is no longer active, and the focus of the encounter is on the residual conditions.
