ICD-10 code: L98. 9 Disorder of skin and subcutaneous tissue, unspecified.
ICD-10 code N47. 6 for Balanoposthitis is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the genitourinary system .
ICD-10 code R10. 2 for Pelvic and perineal pain is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
ICD-10-CM diagnosis code, N48. 6, was established for Peyronie's disease.
Balanoposthitis describes inflammation of the glans penis and the foreskin (prepuce) in uncircumcised males (picture 1 and picture 2). Balanitis refers to the inflammation of the glans penis alone. Posthitis is inflammation of the prepuce alone.
The skin on the head of a penis is called the foreskin. Another name for foreskin is prepuce. A redundant prepuce means that there is an excess amount of foreskin – the foreskin completely covers the head of the penis when it is not erect.
R10. 2 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
R10. 32 Left lower quadrant pain - ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes.
Pelvic pain is discomfort in the lower abdomen and is a common complaint. It is considered separately from vaginal pain and from vulvar or perineal pain, which occurs in the external genitals and nearby perineal skin.

Intralesional collagenase injections (Xiaflex) are currently the only FDA-approved treatment for Peyronie's disease. Collagenase is an enzyme that helps break down the substances that make up plaques. Breaking down the plaques reduces penile curving and improves erectile function.
ICD-Code N40. 1 is a billable ICD-10 code used for healthcare diagnosis reimbursement of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia with Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms.
Main term entries in the ICD-10-CM index for open wounds can be either the type of wound (e.g., puncture), or the term wound, open. Using either term will allow the coder to find the correct type of wound and anatomical location by using the indented subterms. For example, if you look up puncture wound of the abdomen in the index using the main term Wound, open and then go to the subterms Abdomen, wall, puncture, an instructional note will guide you to “see” Puncture, abdomen, wall.#N#Example 1:
Lacerations are generally caused by trauma or contact with an object. Incisions: Typically the result of a sharp object such as a scalpel, knife, or scissors.
An initial encounter is a visit for the purpose of deciding what treatment is required to repair the wound. Subsequent equates to aftercare treatment. Sequela are complications or conditions that arise as a direct result of a wound. Type of wound — Open wounds include:
Penetrating wounds can be life threatening, causing serious injury, especially if involving vital organs, major blood vessels, or nerves. Gunshot wounds: These are considered to be penetrating wounds that are exclusively caused by bullets from firearms (guns, rifles, etc.).
Penetrating: Caused by any object or force that breaks through the skin to the underlying organs or tissue. These wounds vary in size, shape, and presentation, depending on the cause.
Type of wound — Open wounds include: Abrasions: Shallow, irregular wounds of the upper layers of skin. Caused by skin brushing with either a rough surface or a smooth surface at high speed. Usually present with minor to no bleeding, with some pain that subsides shortly after initial injury.
The puncture wounds on the patient’s hands are not gaping and I think the risks outweigh the benefits of any type of suture closure. The wounds are quite small and I think suturing them would likely increase their risk of infection. IMPRESSION: Dog bite.
