Postthrombotic syndrome without complications of left lower extremity

What This Code Means

Chronic pain, swelling, and skin changes in the left leg following a previous blood clot, without open wounds.

Coding Tips

  • •Confirm documentation specifies left leg involvement to justify this code over the unspecified option
  • •May be associated with varicose veins; code both conditions if both are present and documented
