Can someone please tell me the difference between these three ICD10 codes: the patient has a retained splinter in his right foot: Codes, M79.5,
M60.271 and L92.3 are all foreign body codes. Plus I could add the Z18.33 to identify it was a retained splinter. I am leaning towards the L92.3, but I am not sure. Can someone put their input in this? It would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!!
