ICD-10 code M62. 83 for Muscle spasm is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Soft tissue disorders .
2: Cramp and spasm.
M62. 838 Other muscle spasm - ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes.
ICD-10 Code for Spastic hemiplegia affecting left dominant side- G81. 12- Codify by AAPC.
Definition. Spasticity is a condition in which there is an abnormal increase in muscle tone or stiffness of muscle, which might interfere with movement, speech, or be associated with discomfort or pain. Spasticity is usually caused by damage to nerve pathways within the brain or spinal cord that control muscle movement ...
Spasticity is a condition in which muscles stiffen or tighten, preventing normal fluid movement. The muscles remain contracted and resist being stretched, thus affecting movement, speech and gait.
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 .
9: Dorsalgia, unspecified.
Abnormal gait or a walking abnormality is when a person is unable to walk in the usual way. This may be due to injuries, underlying conditions, or problems with the legs and feet. Walking may seems to be an uncomplicated activity.
A similar term, spastic hemiparesis, means that one half of the body is afflicted with weakness, but is not paralyzed. Spastic hemiplegia is caused by brain damage which occurred in the womb or during birth; it can also occur shortly after birth.
Hemiparesis is a mild or partial weakness or loss of strength on one side of the body. Hemiplegia is a severe or complete loss of strength or paralysis on one side of the body. The difference between the two conditions primarily lies in severity.
Coding Guidelines Residual neurological effects of a stroke or cerebrovascular accident (CVA) should be documented using CPT category I69 codes indicating sequelae of cerebrovascular disease. Codes I60-67 specify hemiplegia, hemiparesis, and monoplegia and identify whether the dominant or nondominant side is affected.
A sudden, violent, involuntary contraction of a muscle or group of muscles. An involuntary contraction of a muscle or group of muscles. Spasms may involve skeletal muscle or smooth muscle. Reimbursement claims with a date of service on or after October 1, 2015 require the use of ICD-10-CM codes.
M62.57 Muscle wasting and atrophy, not elsewhere classified, ankle and foot. M62.571 Muscle wasting and atrophy, not elsewhere classified, right ankle and foot. M62.572 Muscle wasting and atrophy, not elsewhere classified, left ankle and foot.
myopathy in scleroderma ( M34.-) myopathy in systemic lupus erythematosus ( M32.-) A sudden contraction of a muscle or group of muscles, such as a cramp. A sudden, violent, involuntary contraction of a muscle or a group of muscles, attended by pain and interference with function, producing involuntary movement and distortion.
BOTOX is indicated for the treatment of upper limb spasticity in adult patients, to decrease the severity of increased muscle tone in elbow flexors (biceps), wrist flexors (flexor carpi radialis and flexor carpi ulnaris), finger flexors (flexor digitorum profundus and flexor digitorum sublimis), and thumb flexors (ad ductor pollicis and flexor pollicis longus).
Safety and effectiveness of BOTOX have not been established for the treatment of other upper or lower limb muscle groups. Safety and effectiveness of BOTOX have not been established for the treatment of spasticity in pediatric patients under age 18 years. BOTOX has not been shown to improve upper extremity functional abilities, or range of motion at a joint affected by a fixed contracture. Treatment with BOTOX is not intended to substitute for usual standard of care rehabilitation regimens.
Hyperreflexia (or hyper-reflexia) is defined as overactive or overresponsive reflexes. Examples of this can include twitching or spastic tendencies, which are indicative of upper motor neuron disease as well as the lessening or loss of control ordinarily exerted by higher brain centers of lower neural pathways (disinhibition).
Type-2 Excludes means the excluded conditions are different, although they may appear similar. A patient may have both conditions, but one does not include the other. Excludes 2 means "not coded here."

This is the official exact match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that in all cases where the ICD9 code 796.1 was previously used, R29.2 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
