Heelies colliding with stationary object, initial encounter

This code describes an injury sustained when a person using "Heelies" (shoes with retractable wheels) collides with a non-moving object. The injury occurs during the initial presentation for treatment of this specific incident.

This code is appropriate for documenting injuries such as fractures, sprains, contusions, or lacerations that result from a user of Heelies striking a stationary object like a wall, pole, or furniture. It should be used for the first encounter for care related to this particular accident.

• Always assign an additional code for the specific nature of the injury (e.g., fracture, sprain).
• Ensure the "A" seventh character is used only for the initial encounter for treatment.
• Consider external cause codes for the location of the incident if known.
