Trigeminal neuralgia. G50.0 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Trigeminal neuralgia. It is found in the 2019 version of the ICD-10 Clinical Modification (CM) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2018 - Sep 30, 2019.
Trigeminal neuralgia
Trigeminal neuralgia usually occurs spontaneously, but is sometimes associated with facial trauma or dental procedures. The condition may be caused by a blood vessel pressing against the trigeminal nerve, also known as vascular compression.

ICD-10 code G50. 0 for Trigeminal neuralgia is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the nervous system .
350.1ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Code 350.1 : Trigeminal neuralgia.
The trigeminal nerve, also known as the fifth cranial nerve, cranial nerve V, or simply CN V, is a cranial nerve responsible for sensation in the face and motor functions such as biting and chewing; it is the most complex of the cranial nerves.
Neuropathy is a nerve condition that often can result in feeling pain, numbness, tingling, swelling, or muscle weakness in different parts of the body. It usually begins in the hands or feet, and gets worse over time. Neuralgia refers pain along the nerve pathway as a result of damage or irritation to that nerve.
ICD-10-CM Code for Atypical facial pain G50. 1.
1 - Atypical facial pain. G50. 1 - Atypical facial pain is a topic covered in the ICD-10-CM.
Ophthalmic: This branch sends nerve impulses from the upper part of your face and scalp to your brain. Ophthalmic refers to the eye. The ophthalmic nerve relates to your eyes, upper eyelids and forehead. Maxillary: This nerve branch is responsible for sensations in the middle part of your face.
Causes of Trigeminal Neuralgia Trigeminal neuralgia usually occurs spontaneously, but is sometimes associated with facial trauma or dental procedures. The condition may be caused by a blood vessel pressing against the trigeminal nerve, also known as vascular compression.
It contains the sensory cell bodies of the 3 branches of the trigeminal nerve (the ophthalmic, mandibular, and maxillary divisions).
Different Types of NeuralgiasTrigeminal Neuralgia. The trigeminal nerve supplies sensation to one side of the face. ... Postherpetic Neuralgia. ... Occipital Neuralgia. ... Auriculotemporal Neuralgia. ... Supraorbital & Supratrochlear Neuralgias. ... Are neuralgias treatable?
Conditions that can mimic trigeminal neuralgia include cluster headaches or migraines, post-herpetic neuralgia (pain following an outbreak of shingles) and TMJ disorder. It's also important to rule out sinusitis and ear infections.
Overview. Trigeminal neuralgia is a condition that causes painful sensations similar to an electric shock on one side of the face. This chronic pain condition affects the trigeminal nerve, which carries sensation from your face to your brain.
G50.0 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of trigeminal neuralgia. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
Atypical trigeminal neuralgia (ATN), or type 2 trigeminal neuralgia, is a form of trigeminal neuralgia, a disorder of the fifth cranial nerve . This form of nerve pain is difficult to diagnose, as it is rare and the symptoms overlap with several other disorders. The symptoms can occur in addition to having migraine headache, or can be mistaken for migraine alone, or dental problems such as temporomandibular joint disorder, musculoskeletal issues, or hypochondriasis. ATN can have a wide range of symptoms and the pain can fluctuate in intensity from mild aching to a crushing or burning sensation, and also to the extreme pain experienced with the more common trigeminal neuralgia.
