M89.0 is a non-specific and non-billable diagnosis code code, consider using a code with a higher level of specificity for a diagnosis of algoneurodystrophy. The code is not specific and is NOT valid for the year 2024 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions. Category or Header define the heading of a category of codes that may be further subdivided by the use of 4th, 5th, 6th or 7th characters.

Specific Coding Applicable to Algoneurodystrophy

Non-specific codes like M89.0 require more digits to indicate the appropriate level of specificity. Consider using any of the following ICD-10-CM codes with a higher level of specificity when coding for algoneurodystrophy:

  • Use M89.00 for Algoneurodystrophy, unspecified site - BILLABLE CODE

  • M89.01 for Algoneurodystrophy, shoulder - NON-BILLABLE CODE

  • Use M89.011 for Algoneurodystrophy, right shoulder - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use M89.012 for Algoneurodystrophy, left shoulder - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use M89.019 for Algoneurodystrophy, unspecified shoulder - BILLABLE CODE

  • M89.02 for Algoneurodystrophy, upper arm - NON-BILLABLE CODE

  • Use M89.021 for Algoneurodystrophy, right upper arm - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use M89.022 for Algoneurodystrophy, left upper arm - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use M89.029 for Algoneurodystrophy, unspecified upper arm - BILLABLE CODE

  • M89.03 for Algoneurodystrophy, forearm - NON-BILLABLE CODE

  • Use M89.031 for Algoneurodystrophy, right forearm - BILLABLE CODE

Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries

The following annotation back-references are applicable to this diagnosis code. The Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries is a list of ICD-10-CM codes, organized "head to toe" into chapters and sections with coding notes and guidance for inclusions, exclusions, descriptions and more.


Inclusion Terms

Inclusion Terms
These terms are the conditions for which that code is to be used. The terms may be synonyms of the code title, or, in the case of "other specified" codes, the terms are a list of the various conditions assigned to that code. The inclusion terms are not necessarily exhaustive. Additional terms found only in the Alphabetic Index may also be assigned to a code.
  • Shoulder-hand syndrome
  • Sudeck's atrophy

Type 1 Excludes

Type 1 Excludes
A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes note. It means "NOT CODED HERE!" An Excludes1 note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as the code above the Excludes1 note. An Excludes1 is used when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.
  • causalgia, lower limb G57.7
  • causalgia, upper limb G56.4
  • complex regional pain syndrome II, lower limb G57.7
  • complex regional pain syndrome II, upper limb G56.4
  • reflex sympathetic dystrophy G90.5

Index to Diseases and Injuries References

The following annotation back-references for this diagnosis code are found in the injuries and diseases index. The Index to Diseases and Injuries is an alphabetical listing of medical terms, with each term mapped to one or more ICD-10-CM code(s).

Patient Education


Complex Regional Pain Syndrome

Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a chronic pain condition. It causes intense pain, usually in the arms, hands, legs, or feet. It may happen after an injury, either to a nerve or to tissue in the affected area. Rest and time may only make it worse.

Symptoms in the affected area are:

  • Dramatic changes in skin temperature, color, or texture
  • Intense burning pain
  • Extreme skin sensitivity
  • Swelling and stiffness in affected joints
  • Decreased ability to move the affected body part

The cause of CRPS is unknown. There is no specific diagnostic test. Your doctor will diagnose CRPS based on your signs and symptoms.

There is no cure. It can get worse over time, and may spread to other parts of the body. Occasionally the symptoms go away, either temporarily or for good. Treatment focuses on relieving the pain, and can include medicines, physical therapy, and nerve blocks.
