The ICD10 code for the diagnosis 'Sprain of ankle' is 'S93.4'. S93.4 is NOT a 'valid' or 'billable' ICD10 code. Please select a more specific diagnosis below.
Instability of the ankle is reported with a code from subcategory M25.37- if the condition is not further qualified as due to an old ligament injury. However, since we know that the instability is due to a Grade III sprain (complete tear) of the calcaneofibular ligament, the correct subcategory is M24.27-Coding Example 2. The calcaneofibular ligament (CFL), which connects the calcaneus, or heel bone, to the fibula; The posterior talofibular ligament (PTFL), which connects the rear of the talus bone to the fibula; The deltoid ligament, a thick ligament which supports the entire medial, or inner, side of the ankle.
