Used for medical claim reporting in all healthcare settings, ICD-10-CM is a standardized classification system of diagnosis codes that represent conditions and diseases, related health problems, abnormal findings, signs and symptoms, injuries, external causes of injuries and diseases, and social circumstances.

ICD-10-CM Code for Other intervertebral disc degeneration, lumbar region M51. 36.
36 Other intervertebral disc degeneration, lumbar region.
There is no distinction made in ICD-10-CM for central canal stenosis vs foraminal stenosis. Therefore, the M48. 0- code covers both/all types of spinal stenosis.
Codes in subcategory M51. 3, Other thoracic, thoracolumbar and lumbosacral intervertebral disc degeneration, are specific to vertebral regions. ...
ICD-10 Code M54. 5 for Chronic Low Back Pain | CareCloud.
9: Dorsalgia, unspecified.
Degenerative disc disease, or DDD, indicates that the intervertebral disc has undergone degenerative, wear-and-tear (arthritic) changes, which may or may not lead to significant spinal problems. These degenerative changes may occur alone or in combination with other lumbar disorders such as a herniated disc.
ICD-10 code G89. 29 for Other chronic pain is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the nervous system .
Spinal stenosis and foraminal stenosis describe the narrowing of the canals in your spine. Spinal stenosis is the narrowing of the canals through which the spinal cord travels, foraminal stenosis is the narrowing through which the spinal nerves travel before exiting the spine.
Radiculopathy, lumbar region The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM M54. 16 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of M54.
Foraminal Stenosis is the narrowing of the cervical disc space caused by enlargement of a joint (the uncinate process) in the spinal canal. The majority of symptoms with this type of cervical spinal stenosis are usually caused by one nerve root on one side.

The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM M48.06 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Spinal Stenosis is a narrowing of a spinal canal that compresses the Spinal Cord. Foraminal Narrowing is a stenosis of the vertebral foramen that compresses (encroaches on) a Nerve Root. In your ICD-9 Index, please look at COMPRESSION - NERVE - ROOT and you will find the codes you are looking for.
Foraminal stenosis does cause compression of the nerve so I suppose it is up to you which code you use. Either is technicall correct. I prefer to code the cause, spinal stenosis (723.0) but I can see the logic in coding the effect, nerve compression (723.4).
I believe you are correct to a point. Foraminal narrowing isn't the same as spinal stenosis but 724.9 is referrable to the lower back. If you are referencing C3-C4 it may be more appropiate to use 723.8 Cervical syndrome NEC.
Low back pain. M54. 5 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2020 edition of ICD-10-CM M54.
Disc desiccation is one of the most common features of degenerative disc disease. It refers to the dehydration of your discs. Your vertebral discs are full of fluid, which keeps them both flexible and sturdy. As you age, the discs begin to dehydrate or slowly lose their fluid.
