Written under the 2018 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code Disorder of Disc M51.9 - Unspecified thoracic, thoracolumbar and lumbosacral intervertebral disc disorder: Neuritis (rheumatoid) M79.2due to herniation, nucleus pulposus M51.9.
A herniated nucleus pulposus is a disorder where part of a inter vertebral disk is pushed through a weak part of the disk, which results in nerve irritation as well as back pain. This is usually due to the gradual deterioration of the vertebrae disks over time.

[4] Cervical disc herniation is the result of the displacement of the nucleus pulposus of the intervertebral disc, which may result in impingement of these traversing nerves as they exit the neural foramen or directly compressing the spinal cord contained within the spinal canal.
Cervical radiculopathy (CR) is a common pain syndrome characterized by sensorimotor deficits due to cervical nerve root compression and inflammation [1]. In C5 or C6 radiculopathy, the proximal shoulder girdle muscles are commonly involved and it may be difficult for the patients to raise their shoulder [1].
ICD-10 Code for Other spondylosis with radiculopathy, cervical region- M47. 22- Codify by AAPC.
Cervical radiculopathy describes a compressed nerve root in the neck (cervical spine). Because the nerve roots in this area of the spine primarily control sensations in your arms and hands, this is where the symptoms are most likely to occur.
12: Radiculopathy Cervical region.
Cervical radiculopathy is the clinical description of when a nerve root in the cervical spine becomes inflamed or damaged, resulting in a change in neurological function. Neurological deficits, such as numbness, altered reflexes, or weakness, may radiate anywhere from the neck into the shoulder, arm, hand, or fingers.
Cervical radiculopathy is often caused by "wear and tear" changes that occur in the spine as we age, such as arthritis. In younger people, it is most often caused by a sudden injury that results in a herniated disk. In some cases, however, there is no traumatic episode associated with the onset of symptoms.
