If the documentation supports no injury found then use a V 71 code for injury not found.

You can also use symptoms (pain) or findings in the HPI or Exam, such as abnormal gait. or lack of coordination. V15.88 Personal Hx of fall also is acceptable and payers get a little more information.
I do agree that V71 could be correct if no injury were documented.
