ICD-10 code R10. 2 for Pelvic and perineal pain is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
Swabs are usually taken from the inside of your vagina and cervix. These are sent to a laboratory to look for signs of a bacterial infection and identify the bacteria responsible. A positive test for chlamydia, gonorrhoea or mycoplasma genitalium supports the diagnosis of PID.
9: Fever, unspecified.
What is 'acute' pelvic inflammatory disease? Acute PID is the inflammation of the uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries and pelvic area caused by an infection. If left untreated, it can cause abdominal pain and fertility problems in the future.
What is PID? Pelvic inflammatory disease is an infection of a woman's reproductive organs. It is a complication often caused by some STDs, like chlamydia and gonorrhea. Other infections that are not sexually transmitted can also cause PID.
It is not always caused by an STI. Sometimes, normal bacteria in your vagina can travel up to your reproductive organs and cause PID. But, you can lower your risk of PID by not douching. You can also prevent STIs by not having vaginal, oral, or anal sex.

0 Urinary tract infection, site not specified.
Septicemia – There is NO code for septicemia in ICD-10. Instead, you're directed to a combination 'A' code for sepsis to indicate the underlying infection, such A41. 9 (Sepsis, unspecified organism) for septicemia with no further detail.
PID is usually treated with antibiotics to provide empiric, broad spectrum coverage of likely pathogens. Recommended regimens can be found in the 2021 STI Treatment Guidelines.
Primary PID is usually and acute infection in which organisms ascend into the uterus and fallopian tubes from the cervix. Chronic active infections are unusual except in neglected cases and in Actinomyces infection, but sterile chronic inflammatory adhesions are common residuals of acute infection.
Painful Urination Painful urination is most often a symptom of a bladder infection. If left untreated, a bladder infection can worsen and travel into your uterus or ovaries, causing pelvic inflammatory disease.
SymptomsPain — ranging from mild to severe — in your lower abdomen and pelvis.Unusual or heavy vaginal discharge that may have an unpleasant odor.Unusual bleeding from the vagina, especially during or after sex, or between periods.Pain during sex.Fever, sometimes with chills.Painful, frequent or difficult urination.

Current recommendations. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends oral doxycycline 100 mg twice daily for 14 days, along with a second- or third-generation cephalosporin administered parenterally, for mild PID in ambulatory patients.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM N74 became effective on October 1, 2021.
In most cases the manifestation codes will have in the code title, "in diseases classified elsewhere.". Codes with this title are a component of the etiology/manifestation convention. The code title indicates that it is a manifestation code.
The ICD code N73 is used to code Pelvic inflammatory disease. Pelvic inflammatory disease or pelvic inflammatory disorder (PID) is an infection of the upper part of the female reproductive system namely the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries, and inside of the pelvis. Often there may be no symptoms.
This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code N73.9 and a single ICD9 code, 616.9 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
Often there may be no symptoms. Signs and symptoms, when present may include lower abdominal pain, vaginal discharge, fever, burning with urination, pain with sex, or irregular menstruation. Untreated PID can result in long term complications including infertility, ectopic pregnancy, chronic pelvic pain, and cancer.
