There are three areas of the feet that are vulnerable to bone spur growth:

What is a bone spur?
M25. 78 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM M25.
A calcaneal spur, or commonly known as a heel spur, occurs when a bony outgrowth forms on the heel bone. Calcaneal spurs can be located at the back of the heel (dorsal heel spur) or under the sole (plantar heel spur).
M77. 3 - Calcaneal spur. ICD-10-CM.
M79. 672 Pain in left foot - ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes.
Heel spurs can happen as a reaction to stress and inflammation caused by plantar fasciitis. Over time your body responds to the stress by building extra bone tissue. This extra tissue becomes a heel spur. Most people don't feel pain from their heel spur, but when they do, the pain is like plantar fasciitis pain.
A heel spur is a calcium deposit on the calcaneus, or heel bone. Despite the name “spur,” it is usually not a spiky protrusion but a smooth outgrowth that has developed over a long period. Bone spurs are growth points off of the edge of a bone.
M77.32ICD-10 Code for Calcaneal spur, left foot- M77. 32- Codify by AAPC.
Enthesopathy of the foot This is the tissue under your foot arch. It can also affect your calcaneus, or heel bone. This pain usually happens because the enthesis of your plantar fascia has thickened. This can cause pain in your heel and around your foot arch when you walk or put stress on your foot.
Calcaneal spur, also known as enthesophyte, is an abnormal bone outgrowth at the inferior part of the calcaneus, from the site of the fibrocartilaginous attachment, specifically the plantar fascia ligament, which is the most common site of a bony spur [1,2].
Routine foot care, removal and/or trimming of corns, calluses and/or nails, and preventive maintenance in specific medical conditions (procedure code S0390), is considered a non-covered service.
ICD-10 Code for Plantar fascial fibromatosis- M72. 2- Codify by AAPC.
M79. 671 Pain in right foot - ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes.
The only way to get rid of heel spurs entirely is by having surgery to remove the growths. However, doctors typically reserve surgery for cases that do not respond to any other treatments. According to the AAOS, surgery is a last resort because it can lead to chronic pain.
Treatments for heel spurs and associated conditions include exercise, custom-made orthotics, anti-inflammatory medications, and cortisone injections. If conservative treatments fail, surgery may be necessary.
The symptoms of heel spurs are pain in the lower ankle, which increase when walking. Treatment of heel spurs can be treated many ways and most often times is very effective. If someone suspects that they have heel spurs, they should contact their physician.
Depending on your specific circumstances, walking may help your heel pain, or make it worse. If you experience excruciating pain while walking, try to rest as much as possible until the pain subsides.
A superficial fibromatosis arising from soft tissue of the plantar regions. It is characterized by the presence of spindle-shaped fibroblasts, hypercellularity, and an infiltrative growth pattern. An inflammation of the plantar fascia, the tissue along the bottom of your foot that connects the heel bone to the toes.
The plantar fascia (also called plantar aponeurosis) are bands of fibrous tissue extending from the calcaneal tuberosity to the toes. The etiology of plantar fasciitis remains controversial but is likely to involve a biomechanical imbalance.
Osteophytes, commonly referred to as bone spurs or parrot beak, are bony projections that form along joint margins. They should not be confused with enthesophytes, which are bony projections that form at the attachment of a tendon or ligament.
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 M25.775 and a single ICD9 code, 726.70 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
