ICD Code T25.132 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use specify a 7th character that describes the diagnosis 'burn of first degree of left toe (s) (nail)' in more detail. The 7th characters that can be added, and the resulting billable codes, are as follows:
Nail avulsions usually offer only temporary relief for ingrown toenails. The nail often grows back to its original thickness and the offending margin again may become problematic, resulting in another nail avulsion.

ICD-10 code L60. 1 for Onycholysis is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the skin and subcutaneous tissue .
Losing a toenail or fingernail because of an injury is called avulsion. The nail may be completely or partially torn off after a trauma to the area. Your doctor may have removed the nail, put part of it back into place, or repaired the nail bed.
11750: Excision of nail and nail matrix, partial or complete (eg, ingrown or deformed nail), for permanent removal; Lay Description: The physician removes all or part of a fingernail or toenail, including the nail plate and matrix permanently.
11750 is a more intensive version of 11730. 11730 is performed so the nail can grow back. 11750 in addition to remove of the nail, the matrix/nailbed is killed off so the nail doesn't grow back. The descriptions for CPT codes 11730, 11732 and 11750 indicate partial or complete.
ICD-10-CM Code for Tinea unguium B35. 1.
DIS-truh-fee) Distortion or malformation of the fingernails and toenails. Also called onychodystrophy.
Repeatedly hurting your feet — or minor foot trauma — can damage the toes and nail plates, eventually leading to onychogryphosis. For example, wearing shoes that are too small for you every day can cause foot trauma. Onychogryphosis can also develop if you have a condition like hammer toe.
Avulsion of a nail involves separation and removal of the entire nail plate or a portion of nail plate and an excision of the nail and the nail matrix is generally performed under local anesthesia requiring separation and removal of the entire nail plate or a portion of nail plate and is a permanent removal.
A partial nail avulsion is where only part of the nail is removed, along with the underlying tissue. A full nail avulsion is where the entire nail plate is removed.
Nail Avulsion / RemovalKeep wound dry for 24 hours, then remove bandage and shower normally.Cleanse wound gently, allowing soap and water to run over wound, but do not scrub.Keep wound moist with Polysporin ointment or Vaseline, and cover daily with a clean non-stick bandage.
Following surgical avulsion, the combined range of regrowth for both fingernails and toenails has been observed at 5 to 10 months. Elsewhere it is estimated that surgically avulsed fingernails in the average adult will completely regrow in 4 to 5 months, whereas toenails require twice as long, 10 to 18 months.
Partial nail avulsions take an average of six weeks to heal. Total nail avulsions can take eight weeks or longer to heal. However, some people will heal quicker than others. There are many factors to consider, such as if you smoke or if you have poor circulation (these can mean you take longer to heal).
Nail bed avulsion Some accidents can lift your nail away from your finger partially or completely. This is called nail bed avulsion, and it's extremely painful. This injury is typically accompanied by bleeding and swelling, and it definitely calls for immediate medical attention.
Medical nail avulsion is the removal of a fingernail or, more often, a toenail by chemical destruction of the nail plate. It is a painless process that takes several weeks to complete.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM S91.209A became effective on October 1, 2021.
Use secondary code (s) from Chapter 20, External causes of morbidity, to indicate cause of injury. Codes within the T section that include the external cause do not require an additional external cause code. Type 1 Excludes.
Procedure code 11730 (Avulsion of nail plate, partial or complete, simple; single) should be used when removing part, or the entire nail, and it is not necessary to destroy the nail matrix.
Procedure code 11750 (Excision of nail and nail matrix, partial or complete, [eg, ingrown or deformed nail] for permanent removal) requires the removal of part or the entire nail along its length, with destruction or permanent removal of the matrix by any means.
An ingrown nail is growth of the nail edge into the surrounding soft tissue that may result in pain, inflammation or infection. This condition most commonly occurs in the great toes and may require surgical management. Other conditions may also require avulsion of part or all of a nail.
Regrowth of the nail usually requires at least four months. With appropriate surgical management and instruction for proper shoes and nail care, the problem of ingrowing nails should not recur. The surgical treatment of nails is also covered for the following indications: Subungal abscess. Contusion injuries of nails.
Excision of the nail and the nail matrix (CPT code 11750) performed under local anesthesia requiring separation and removal of the entire nail plate or a portion of nail plate (including the entire length of the nail border to and under the eponychium) followed by destruction or permanent removal of the associated nail matrix.
Nail avulsions usually offer only temporary relief for ingrown toenails. The nail often grows back to its original thickness and the offending margin again may become problematic, resulting in another nail avulsion. Therefore, a partial or complete excision of nail and nail matrix may be the preferred course of treatment for recurrent ingrown nails.
The surgical treatment of ingrown nails is considered to be medically appropriate and reasonable for an ing rown toenail in the advanced stage in which the lateral nail fold bulges over the nail plate causing erythema, edema, and tenderness, and granulation of the epithelium inhibits serous drainage and precludes any chance of elevating the nail edge from the dermis of the lateral skin fold.
A nail avulsion usually requires injected local anesthesia except in instances wherein the digit is devoid of sensation or there are other extenuating circumstances for which injectable anesthesia is not required or is medically contraindicated.
Treatment of simple uncomplicated or asymptomatic ingrown nail such as removal of a nail spicule may be considered to be routine foot care as are other trimming, cutting, clipping and debriding of a nail distal to the eponychium. Routine foot care is covered only when certain systemic conditions are present. (Refer to LCD: Routine Foot Care).
For codes less than 6 characters that require a 7th character a placeholder 'X' should be assigned for all characters less than 6. The 7th character must always be the 7th position of a code. E.g. The ICD-10-CM code T67.4 (Heat exhaustion due to salt depletion) requires an Episode of Care identifier.
A burn is a type of injury to skin , or other tissues, caused by heat, electricity, chemicals, friction, or radiation. Burns that affect only the superficial skin layers are known as superficial or first-degree burns. When the injury extends into some of the underlying layers, it is described as a partial-thickness or second-degree burn.
