By the 18th century, a variety of hypotheses for concussion had emerged. The 19th century discovery of petechial hemorrhagic lesions in severe traumatic brain injury led to these being posited as the basis of concussion, and a similar logic was used later to suggest diffuse axonal injury was responsible.
A concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury—or TBI—caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head or by a hit to the body that causes the head and brain to move rapidly back and forth.

Z87. 828 - Personal history of other (healed) physical injury and trauma | ICD-10-CM.
A head injury is a broad term that describes a vast array of injuries that occur to the scalp, skull, brain, and underlying tissue and blood vessels in the head. Head injuries are also commonly referred to as brain injury, or traumatic brain injury (TBI), depending on the extent of the head trauma.
A concussion occurs when the brain impacts the inside of the skull, resulting in damage to the brain tissue. However, closed head injuries can also result from rotational forces when the head twists or turns side to side or from the brain moving forward or backward inside of the skull (i.e., in the event of whiplash).
Almost half the hospitals used other signs and symptoms to define minor head injury. The ICD-10 code S. 06 (intracranial injury) was used by 51of the hospitals (91%).
Therefore, assign code S06. 9x0A for documentation of traumatic brain injury (initial encounter) without further specification. However, a more specific code from category S06 should be assigned to identify the documented injuries such as concussion, cerebral edema, contusion, laceration, and hemorrhage.

Categories Z00-Z99 are provided for occasions when circumstances other than a disease, injury or external cause classifiable to categories A00 -Y89 are recorded as 'diagnoses' or 'problems'. This can arise in two main ways:
A nonspecific term used to describe transient alterations or loss of consciousness following closed head injuries. The duration of unconsciousness generally lasts a few seconds, but may persist for several hours. Concussions may be classified as mild, intermediate, and severe. Prolonged periods of unconsciousness (often defined as greater than 6 hours in duration) may be referred to as post-traumatic coma (coma, post-head injury). (from rowland, merritt's textbook of neurology, 9th ed, p418)
S06.82- code to specified intracranial injury. Clinical Information. A concussion is a type of brain injury. It is a short loss of normal brain function in response to a head injury. Concussions are a common type of sports injury. You can also suffer from one if you suffer a blow to the head or hit your head after a fall.
You may also experience nausea, ringing in your ears, dizziness, or tiredness. You may feel dazed or not your normal self for several days or weeks after the injury.
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.

If you have a head injury or other trauma that may have caused a TBI, you need to get medical care as soon as possible. To make a diagnosis, your health care provider
The symptoms of TBI depend on the type of injury and how serious the brain damage is.
Z87.820 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of personal history of traumatic brain injury. The code Z87.820 is valid during the fiscal year 2021 from October 01, 2020 through September 30, 2021 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.
Military personnel in combat zones are also at risk. Symptoms of a TBI may not appear until days or weeks following the injury.
Health care professionals use a neurological exam and imaging tests to assess TBI. Serious traumatic brain injuries need emergency treatment. Treatment and outcome depend on how severe the injury is. TBI can cause a wide range of changes affecting thinking, sensation, language, or emotions.
For mild TBI, the main treatment is rest. If you have a headache, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers. It is important to follow your health care provider's instructions for complete rest and a gradual return to your normal activities. If you start doing too much too soon, it may take longer to recover. Contact your provider if your symptoms are not getting better or if you have new symptoms.
Information for Patients. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) happens when a bump, blow, jolt, or other head injury causes damage to the brain. Every year, millions of people in the U.S. suffer brain injuries. More than half are bad enough that people must go to the hospital.
