Urinary Frequency – How Often Should You Pee? Frequency refers to the number of times you go to the toilet to pass urine in a day. If you need to go to the toilet very often, more than seven times a day on drinking approximately 2 litres of fluid, you may have a frequency problem.
Normal patterns of urination may vary considerably; adults generally void 5 to 6 times daily but no more than once after retiring. The average 24-hour urinary output is 1200 to 1500 ml. Urinary frequency may occur because of either increased urine volume or decreased bladder capicity (i.e., less than 200 ml).
0 Urinary tract infection, site not specified.
Painful urination (dysuria) is discomfort or burning with urination, usually felt in the tube that carries urine out of your bladder (urethra) or the area surrounding your genitals (perineum).
Painful micturition is one of the most common symptoms of urological diseases. The term "dysuria" is descriptive for micturition which the patient perceives as unpleasant.

References found for the code 788.41 in the Index of Diseases and Injuries:
Your kidneys make urine by filtering wastes and extra water from your blood. The waste is called urea. Your blood carries it to the kidneys. From the kidneys, urine travels down two thin tubes called ureters to the bladder. The bladder stores urine until you are ready to urinate.
General Equivalence Map Definitions The ICD-9 and ICD-10 GEMs are used to facilitate linking between the diagnosis codes in ICD-9-CM and the new ICD-10-CM code set. The GEMs are the raw material from which providers, health information vendors and payers can derive specific applied mappings to meet their needs.
As of October 2015, ICD-9 codes are no longer used for medical coding. Instead, use this equivalent ICD-10-CM code, which is an exact match to ICD-9 code 788.4:
Non-Billable means the code is not sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis. Use a child code to capture more detail.
