R22. 43 - Localized swelling, mass and lump, lower limb, bilateral. ICD-10-CM.
Lower extremity edema is the accumulation of fluid in the lower legs, which may or may not include the feet (pedal edema). It is typically caused by one of three mechanisms. The first is venous edema caused by increased capillary permeability, resulting in a fluid shift from the veins to the interstitial space.

2022 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code R22: Localized swelling, mass and lump of skin and subcutaneous tissue.
ICD-10-CM Code for Edema, unspecified R60. 9.
The differential diagnosis of bilateral lower extremity edema includes venous thrombosis, heart failure, liver failure, nephrotic syndrome, hypothyroid myxedema, and venous insufficiency. The progressive swelling of lymphedema is often soft with pitting at onset and then advances to the classic firm, nonpitting edema.
Edema is swelling of soft tissues due to increased interstitial fluid. The fluid is predominantly water, but protein and cell-rich fluid can accumulate if there is infection or lymphatic obstruction. Edema may be generalized or local (eg, limited to a single extremity or part of an extremity).
Edema is swelling caused by excess fluid trapped in your body's tissues. Although edema can affect any part of your body, you may notice it more in your hands, arms, feet, ankles and legs.
Edema, or swelling, occurs when excess fluid collects in your body's tissues. Dependent edema is specific to parts of the body that that are influenced by gravity, such as your legs, feet, or arms. Edema may be a side effect of medications for conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes.
Localized swelling, mass and lump, lower limb, bilateral The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM R22. 43 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of R22.
(eh-dee-ma) swelling caused by excess fluid in body tissues. Abnormal fluid accumulation in tissues or body cavities. Most cases of edema are present under the skin in subcutaneous tissue. Accumulation of an excessive amount of watery fluid in cells or intercellular tissues.
Anasarca is a medical condition that leads to general swelling of the whole body. It happens when your body tissues retain too much fluid due to several reasons. It differs from other types of edema that affect one or two parts of the body. The condition is also known as extreme generalized edema or massive edema.

Accumulation of an excessive amount of watery fluid in cells or intercellular tissues. Edema means swelling caused by fluid in your body's tissues. It usually occurs in the feet, ankles and legs, but it can involve your entire body. Causes of edema include.

The General Equivalency Mapping (GEM) crosswalk indicates an approximate mapping between the ICD-10 code R22.42 its ICD-9 equivalent. The approximate mapping means there is not an exact match between the ICD-10 code and the ICD-9 code and the mapped code is not a precise representation of the original code.
Right arm lymphedema (swelling from lymph obstruction) Right leg lymphedema (swelling from lymph obstruction) Clinical Information. A condition that is caused by trauma to the lymph system, which disrupts the normal flow of lymph fluid.
A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes. It means "not coded here". A type 1 excludes note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as I89.0. A type 1 excludes note is for used for when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.
