Bed bug bites appear in clusters, while spider bites are singular. Spider bites vary more as there are thousands of species. Spider bites are more severe, as they have venom, so swell larger and are more painful. And bed bugs bite every night whereas spider bites are one-off.
It can be difficult to tell the difference between them. Flea bites are usually found on the lower half of your body or in warm, moist areas like the bends of elbows and knees. Bedbug bites are often on the upper half of your body, around the face, neck, and arms.
While not always the case, bed bug bites are often grouped together in a small area and at times may occur in a line or a zigzag pattern. Bites normally look like small, flat or raised areas that may become inflamed, itchy, red or blistered.
A bruise, or contusion, is a type of hematoma of tissue in which capillaries and sometimes venules are damaged by trauma, allowing blood to seep, hemorrhage, or extravasate into the surrounding interstitial tissues. Bruises, which do not blanch under pressure, can involve capillaries at the level of skin, subcutaneous tissue, muscle, or bone.

S30.86x is for "Insect bite of abdomen, low back, pelvis and extrn genitals" ... I'm afraid you're looking in the wrong site.#N#There are similar codes for the other body areas. For example, if you look in the index under Bite, Forearm, Superficial, Insect it will lead you to S50.86x.#N#Bite, Leg (lower), Superficial, Insect - S80.86x.#N#Bite, Head, Superficial, Insect, S00.96.#N#There's also:#N#Bite, Arm (upper)...#N#Bite, Thigh...#N#etc...#N#I do a lot of these because our providers like to jump to code W57 which cannot be used as a primary code!
Please HELP with INSECT BITE DIAGNOSIS problem, we don't have specific for extremities from S30.86x category and the ICD 9 conversion of 919.4 is T07 category and I have seen some will use T14.8 other skin injury.
non venomous insect bite to chest and thorax can be found under S20. and so on.. the classification breaks down injuries to body area, the reason you cannot find extremities and face under S30 is because that is the general area for superficial injuries of abdomen, lower back, lumbar spine, pelvis and external genitals.
No multiple bite code. You have to code for each of the bites and sites. There isn't a code for multiple and L53.8 is a symptom. You can't code for symptoms when a definitive DX is available. Hope this helps.
L53.8 would not be appropriate as that is a symptom of a bug bite and you don't code to the symptoms when there is a definitive DX. You are going to have to code for the bites and sites. if I remember right from someone's post earlier this year, there is no general bug bites all over body DX. I don't think this qualifies as Sequela either.
