M60. 08 is the appropriate code for abscess muscle.
Paraspinal abscess is a collection of pus located around the spinal cord. This is usually seen as a complication of vertebral osteomyelitis and discitis (diskitis) but may be related to hematogenous seeding during bloodstream infection.
Discitis is one of many kinds of spinal inflammation which can cause irritation and swelling of your spine's surrounding vertebrae, joints, and tissues. Discitis often accompanies another medical condition called osteomyelitis, an infection with inflammation of the bone or the bone marrow.
Low Back Pain5 – Low Back Pain. ICD-Code M54. 5 is a billable ICD-10 code used for healthcare diagnosis reimbursement of chronic low back pain.
The majority of the vertebral column movements are produced by an extensive set of muscles, that run all the way along the back of the spine. They're known collectively as the paraspinal muscles. The paraspinal muscles are also a component of the: Core Muscles; Back Muscles (minus psoas).
Vertebral osteomyelitis refers to an infection of the vertebral body in the spine. It is a fairly rare cause of back pain, especially in young healthy adults. Generally, the infection is spread to the vertebral body by a vascular route.
Discitis is a disease, as the "itis" would indicate, of infection of the discs between the vertebra of the spine. Like appendicitis, discitis is usually a bacterial infection but may be viral.
Discitis is a serious but uncommon medical diagnosis. It is an infection of the intervertebral disc space. The role of the intervertebral discs is to separate and cushion the spinal segments from each other. An infection, and thus inflammation of these discs can cause much pain and discomfort.
Vertebral osteomyelitis is the most common form of vertebral infection. It can develop from direct open spinal trauma, infections in surrounding areas and from bacteria that spreads to a vertebra from the blood. Intervertebral disc space infections involve the space between adjacent vertebrae.

The current code, M54. 5 (Low back pain), will be expanded into three more specific codes: M54. 50 (Low back pain, unspecified)

Paraspinal and epidural abscesses are rare conditions often diagnosed later in the disease process that can have significant morbidity and mortality. Predisposing risk factors include diabetes, human immunodeficiency virus, intravenous drug abuse, and previous history of spinal surgery or injection.
Spinal infections are rare but can be deadly, so you need to get a proper diagnosis as soon as possible if you're experiencing spinal pain.
A primary psoas abscess can occur in individuals with diabetes mellitus, AIDS, kidney failure, immunosuppression, or intravenous drug use. A secondary psoas abscess can be caused by the spread of infection from gastrointestinal diseases such as appendicitis, Crohn disease, diverticulitis, or perforated colon carcinoma.
An epidural abscess is an infection that forms in the space between your skull bones and your brain lining (intracranial epidural abscess). Quite often, it forms in the space between the bones of your spine and the lining membrane of your spinal cord (spinal epidural abscess).
