R20. 2 Paresthesia of skin - ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes.
Publications. Definition. Paresthesia refers to a burning or prickling sensation that is usually felt in the hands, arms, legs, or feet, but can also occur in other parts of the body. The sensation, which happens without warning, is usually painless and described as tingling or numbness, skin crawling, or itching.
R20. 2 - Paresthesia of skin. ICD-10-CM.
Arm paresthesia is a sensation of tingling (feeling of “pins and needles”) or burning in the arm that occurs without stimulation. It can result from a previous arm injury or pressure on a nerve in the arm. Other causes include damage to nerves in the arm from exposure to extreme heat or cold or to toxic compounds.
Paresthesia can be caused by disorders affecting the central nervous system (encephalitis, MS, stroke) or any of the peripheral nerves (carpel tunnel syndrome, atherosclerosis). Peripheral neuropathy is a general term indicating disturbances in the peripheral nerves.
Paresthesia is numbness or a burning feeling that occurs most often in the extremities, such as the hands, arms, legs, or feet, but that can happen elsewhere in the body as well. It is the same “pins and needles” feeling that happens when someone sits on their leg or foot for too long.
Disturbances of skin sensation ICD-10-CM R20.
Meralgia paresthetica is a disorder characterized by tingling, numbness, and burning pain in the outer side of the thigh. The disorder is caused by compression of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve, a sensory nerve to the skin, as it exits the pelvis.
Other idiopathic peripheral autonomic neuropathy G90. 09 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM G90. 09 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Paresthesia suggests abnormality affecting the sensory nervous system and may arise anywhere from the peripheral nerve to the sensory cortex. It is one of the terms attached to peripheral neuropathy for which there is a lexicon (Table 1).
Upper extremity neuropathy is a very common condition that manifests in weakness, soreness, and changes in the hands' sensitivity, depending on the location of the nerve damage. One or more nerves can be affected. It can develop at any age but is most common in people who spend a lot of time at the computer.
Dysesthesias often present as a painful sensation and can involve any bodily tissue most commonly the mouth, scalp, skin, or legs [ 2]. Paresthesias can be caused by a dysfunction or abnormality affecting any level of the somatosensory pathway, with the most common causes affecting peripheral sensory nerves.
It may seem weird, but paresthesia usually is painless and harmless. But sometimes it can be a sign of a more serious medical problem.
Repositioning yourself to release pressure on the nerve may be enough to relieve any tingling or numbness that you're experiencing. Over-the-counter (OTC) pain medication or a cold compress can also be used to relieve any temporary or infrequent pain caused by paresthesia.
Being anxious has activated an active stress response The stress response also heightens our senses and stimulates the body, especially the nervous system. These actions can cause a tingling, tingly, pins and needles, paresthesia sensation and feelings.

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code R20.2 and a single ICD9 code, 782.0 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
A non-neoplastic or neoplastic disorder that affects the peripheral nervous system. Diseases of the peripheral nerves external to the brain and spinal cord, which includes diseases of the nerve roots, ganglia, plexi, autonomic nerves, sensory nerves, and motor nerves. Your peripheral nerves are the ones outside your brain and spinal cord.
Your peripheral nerves are the ones outside your brain and spinal cord. Like static on a telephone line, peripheral nerve disorders distort or interrupt the messages between the brain and the rest of the body. There are more than 100 kinds of peripheral nerve disorders. They can affect one nerve or many nerves.
Approximate Synonyms. Neuropathy (nerve damage), peripheral. Peripheral nerve disease. Clinical Information. A nerve problem that causes pain, numbness, tingling, swelling, or muscle weakness in different parts of the body. It usually begins in the hands or feet and gets worse over time.
There are more than 100 kinds of peripheral nerve disorders. They can affect one nerve or many nerves. Some are the result of other diseases, like diabetic nerve problems. Others, like guillain-barre syndrome, happen after a virus infection.
