Wiki Need hep with an icd-10 code

[micki127]

Hello,

I am having a difficult time trying to figure out what code to use for intercostal strain. I was leaning towards s29.011 - Strain of muscle and tendon of front wall of thorax.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance
Micki

Intercostal strains = intercostal muscles that allow the ribcage to move up and down.

So I would go with S23.41X()

Just my 2 cents.
Have a great day!
