About S90.02

S90.02 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for contusion of left ankle. It belongs to category S90 (superficial injury of ankle, foot and toes), block S90-S99 (injuries to the ankle and foot) 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.

Within S90.0 (contusion of ankle), S90.02 is specifically for contusion of left ankle. Related codes cover unspecified ankle (S90.00) and right ankle (S90.01).

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.
