Other intervertebral disc degeneration, lumbar region
This form of dextroscoliosis refers to the spine curving at only 10 degrees to the right. The angle may be small in relation to others, but a mild curvature should still be taken seriously. What Are the Symptoms of Dextroscoliosis?

M51. 36 Other intervertebral disc degeneration, lumbar region - ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes.
Lumbar degenerative joint disease, commonly called osteoarthritis, is a condition in which the shock-absorbing cartilage that cushions the joints in the lower back becomes inflamed, breaks down, and deteriorates.
According to Coding Clinic: “Assign code M16. 0—Bilateral primary osteoarthritis of hip for degenerative changes of hips”. Coding Clinic's rationale is, “ICD-10- CM's Alphabetic Index under “Degeneration, joint disease” instructs “see Osteoarthritis.”
722.4 is the correct code for degenerative disease of the cervical intervertebral disc.
Degenerative joint disease, or joint degeneration, is another name for osteoarthritis. It is known as “wear-and-tear” arthritis because it develops as joints wear down, allowing bones to rub against each other.
Degenerative disc disease or DDD can be the cause of many different symptoms resulting in localized pain or pain that radiates down the leg. Degenerative joint disease or DJD is very different, but can have overlapping symptoms with DDD.
ICD-10 code: G31. 9 Degenerative disease of nervous system, unspecified.
ICD-10 code M15. 0 for Primary generalized (osteo)arthritis is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Arthropathies .
ICD-9 Code Transition: 723.1 Code M54. 2 is the diagnosis code used for Cervicalgia (Neck Pain). It is a common problem, with two-thirds of the population having neck pain at some point in their lives.
How is degenerative disc disease diagnosed? A diagnosis is based on a medical history and a physical examination, as well as the symptoms and the circumstances where the pain started. Magnetic resonance imaging can show damage to discs, but it alone cannot confirm degenerative disc disease.
Physical therapy can help stretch and strengthen the right muscles to help the back heal and reduce the frequency of painful flare-ups. Lifestyle modifications, such as changing your posture, losing weight or giving up smoking, can sometimes help reduce stress on the damaged disc and slow down further degeneration.
Degenerative disk disease occurs when the cushioning in your spine begins to wear away. The condition is most common in older adults. After age 40, most people experience some spinal degeneration.
How is spinal arthritis treated?Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and corticosteroids (pills or injections) to reduce pain and swelling.Other medications targeting specific symptoms or triggers of inflammatory arthritis.Physical therapy to improve back muscle strength and range of motion in the spine.More items...
Degenerative disc disease isn't actually a disease, but rather a condition in which a damaged disc causes pain. This pain can range from nagging to disabling. The condition can be caused by the drying out of the disc over time, daily activities, sports and injuries.
