What is the difference between these two codes?:) How do you distinquish wihich codes to use?:confused:
 
From what I understand, a unna boot, usually covering most of foot, and up leg, is comprised of a regular guaze type bandage, mixed with zinc oxide paste.
In 29581, this is a special, layered compression system/bandage. If you google 29581, you'll come up with news releases that explains a little about the type of "bandage" used.
