The common signs of a respiratory infection include:Chest or nasal congestion.Wet or dry cough.Runny nose.Fatigue.Body aches.Low-grade fever.Sore throat.
Even without treatment, bronchitis usually goes away on its own in most healthy people in 1-3 weeks.
Many lower respiratory infections (LRTIs) are self-limited and resolve without the need for additional treatment. There is no universal treatment for all LRTIs, so if you do need treatment, your doctor will choose treatments that best address the symptoms you are experiencing.
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 J22 and a single ICD9 code, 519.8 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
J22 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of unspecified acute lower respiratory infection. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
