S86.802 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for unspecified injury of other muscle(s) and tendon(s) at lower leg level, left leg. It belongs to category S86 (injury of muscle, fascia and tendon at lower leg level), block S80-S89 (injuries to the knee and lower leg) 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 3 subcodes must be used instead.
