I still struggle with the idea of whether this code, T16.2XXA should be coded as an injury...patient was playing sand volleyball and got some bits of sand in ear. Dr. removed cerumen and tiny bits of sand in ear. Is there a rule regarding this code that should be followed. Any help on this.
Thanks,

T.D., CPC
