S30.82Blister (nonthermal) of abdomen, lower back, pelvis and external genitals

S30.82 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for Blister (nonthermal) of abdomen, lower back, pelvis and external genitals. It belongs to category S30 (superficial injury of abdomen, lower back, pelvis and external genitals), block S30-S39 (injuries to the abdomen, lower back, lumbar spine, pelvis and external genitals) and chapter 19 (injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 9 subcodes must be used instead.

Within S30.8 (other superficial injuries of abdomen, lower back, pelvis and external genitals), S30.82 is specifically for Blister (nonthermal) of abdomen, lower back, pelvis and external genitals. Related codes cover abrasion of abdomen, lower back, pelvis and external genitals (S30.81), external constriction of abdomen, lower back, pelvis and external genitals (S30.84), superficial foreign body of abdomen, lower back, pelvis and external genitals (S30.85), insect bite (nonvenomous) of abdomen, lower back, pelvis and external genitals (S30.86) and other superficial bite of abdomen, lower back, pelvis and external genitals (S30.87).

Codes in this range require a 7th character: A for initial encounter, D for subsequent encounter and S for sequela. Use placeholder "X" characters to fill any empty positions before the 7th character.

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
