About Our Peripheral Nerve Services Nerve Entrapment. Nerve entrapment is a medical syndrome that develops when nerves become compressed (or entrapped) and restricted. This occurs due to a variety of causes, from trauma or injury to repeated or overuse activity.
Peripheral neuropathy that is not further specified as being caused by an underlying condition is assigned to code 356.9.

Medial and lateral plantar nerve entrapment is symptomatic compression of the medial and/or lateral branches of the posterior tibial nerve at the medial heel and proximal arch. Diagnosis is clinical. Treatment involves orthotics and immobilization. (See also Overview of Foot and Ankle Disorders.
Foot and ankle neuropathy and nerve entrapment causes Foot and ankle nerve conditions can occur because of injury, stress on the foot or ankle, diabetes and autoimmune diseases.
What Is Entrapment Neuropathy? Entrapment neuropathy is a condition in which a nerve becomes compressed, or entrapped, between two other structures in the body. Usually, the nerve is compressed between a ligament and a bone. Repetitive motion can cause the ligament and bone to press or rub against the nerve.
The most frequently recommended treatment for a pinched nerve is rest for the affected area. Your doctor will ask you to stop any activities that cause or aggravate the compression. Depending on the location of the pinched nerve, you may need a splint, collar or brace to immobilize the area.
Numbness or decreased sensation in the area supplied by the nerve. Sharp, aching or burning pain, which may radiate outward. Tingling, pins and needles sensations (paresthesia) Muscle weakness in the affected area.
Symptoms may be relieved immediately; however, a full recovery can take several months. The length of recovery depends on how badly damaged the ulnar nerve is. Although the majority of patients recover completely, in severe cases some symptoms will decrease but may not completely go away.
Feelings of Weakness. Weakness or heaviness while engaging that particular muscle is also an important indicator of pinched nerves. Fatigue due to engaging in a particular activity that requires a specific muscle group to perform is a common sign.
Polyneuropathy – Two or more nerves in different areas get affected. Autonomic neuropathy – Affects the nerves which control blood pressure, sweating, digestion, heart rate, bowel and bladder emptying.
Autonomic neuropathy symptoms can be heart intolerance, excess sweat or no sweat, blood pressure changes, bladder, bowel or digestive problems. Physician does a thorough physical examination including extremity neurological exam and noting vitals.
Diana is a 52 year old woman coming to emergency department with throbbing pain on her legs and arms from past few weeks. Diana takes over the counter medicine for pain. But that is not giving a proper relief to her. She has a history of DM, HTN and hypercholesterolemia.
Detailed history of the patient like symptoms, lifestyle and exposure to toxins may also help to diagnose neuropathy. Blood tests, CT, MRI, electromyography, nerve biopsy and skin biopsy are the tests used to confirm neuropathy.
If yes, neuropathy and diabetes needs to be combined and coded regardless of it is polyneuropathy, autonomic neuropathy, mononeuropathy or unspecified neuropathy. Peripheral neuropathy with diabetes should be coded as E11.42 (DM with polyneuropath), not e11.40 (DM with neuropathy).
There is hereditary neuropathy also which get transferred from parent to child. Neuropathy can occur in any nerve of the body, but peripheral neuropathy is the common type seen in most of the people. As the name says peripheral neuropathy affects peripheral nerves usually extremities (hands and feet).
