Here are all the ICD-10 codes for different forms of abdominal pain. Two quick qualifiers:
Since the codes for abdominal pain describe symptoms and not specific diagnoses, they are mostly used when a conclusive diagnosis has not yet been determined. These codes may also be used when the abdominal pain symptom occurs alongside a diagnosis that is not typically associated with it, but the code for the main diagnosis should always be recorded first.
ICD-10 codes refer to the codes from the 10th Revision of this classification system . These codes consist of three to seven characters (both letters and numbers).
All codes begin with R10, the general code for abdominal and pelvic pain, and then up to three numbers can be added to that code for a more specific diagnosis.
