Multiple trauma means having several serious injuries from something like a fall, an attack, or a crash. The injuries could cause severe bleeding or break large bones. They might include damage to the brain or to organs such as the lungs or spleen.

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 .
Category G89 contains four codes for acute and chronic post-thoracotomy pain (G89.12, G89.22) and other postprocedural pain (G89.18, G89.28). The ICD-10-CM guidelines state that you should not code “routine or expected postoperative pain immediately after surgery.” Additionally, in order to assign these codes, the physician must document that the patient’s pain is a complication of the surgery.
You must code flank pain as unspecified abdominal pain (R10.9) unless the physician provides additional information about the location of the pain, such as whether it is in the upper or lower portion of the abdomen. Pelvic pain is classified to code R10.2 (Pelvic and perineal pain).
Pleurodynia (R07.81): Spasms of pain in the intercostal muscles, which can be a sign of pleurisy (inflammationof the pleural membranes). Intercostal pain (R07.82): This is pain originating in the intercostal nerves, which run between pairs of adjacent ribs.
The ICD-10-CM Index refers you to the code for angina (I20.9) when the patient’s chest pain is described as “ischemic.” However, other types of chest pain are reported with codes from category R07 (Pain in throat and chest). There is an exception for post-thoracotomy pain, which we’ll discuss later.
In addition to the codes for pain in the various parts of the abdomen, there are codes for: Acute abdomen (R10.0): This is sudden, severe abdominal pain, often accompanied by rigidity of the abdomen.
Rebound tenderness, on the other hand, occurs when the examiner releases the pressure. It is a sign of peritonitis. Colic (R10.83): Colic is pain that comes in waves. It is associated with contractions of smooth muscles, like those in the intestine or the ureter.
The most commonly "sprained" ligament of the ankle is the Talo-fibular ligament, which for some bizarre reason in ICD-10 is not listed a "specified" ligament in the Ankle Sprain Code Set, so it has to be allocated to "Other" (i.e. "none of the above"). As for the "swelling" of the ankle, the Alphabetical Index of Diseases refers "Joint Swelling" ...
As for the "swelling" of the ankle, the Alphabetical Index of Diseases refers "Joint Swelling" to Effusion of the joint. Also, "Edema" of the ankle refers to Effusion of the joint. Unfortunately, most residual ankle swelling from previous injury is in the extra-articular soft tissues (edema) and not intra-articular (effusion).
The ‘S’ is added only to the injury code, not the sequela code. The seventh character ‘S’ identifies the injury responsible for the sequela. The specific type of sequela (e.g. scar) is sequenced first, followed by the injury code.”.
There is no time limit on when a sequela code can be used. The residual effect may be present early or may occur months or years later. Two codes are generally required: one describing the nature of the sequela and one for the sequela. The code for the acute phase of the illness or injury is never reported with a code for the late effect.
