Hello,

please see chart notes below & help to confirm if the Dx of Herpes needed.
Can I added B00.89 - Other herpesviral infection??


Provider code: Vulvar lesion LESION OF VULVA N90.89

CC: new patient, vulvar lesion, abnormal bleeding
HPI: new patient visit and vulvar lesion. She is overall doing well. Recently out of 3 yr relationship and now with new casual partner. For last week has had intense itching and burning on the vulva. Was treated for a UTI thru urgent care but does not have dysuria. No improvement since completing antibitoics
*Also compaining of new ocp causing irregular bleeding--she is accustomed to having 2 day menses but now on the low dose ocp her bleeding is much heavier--starting on third week of pills but not missing any pills.

Physical Exam:
GU: BUS wnl; there are small multiform open lesions on the posterior forchette and also near the urethra. vagina w/o erythema or atrophy, lesions or discharge; Cervix w/o CMT or lesions; uterus not enlarged, no masses or tenderness; adenexa w/o tenderness or masses.

A/P: vulvar lesions, and abnormal bleeding on low dose ocp
Lesion: herpes swab but will empirically treat her lesions---they are consistent with herpes. Rest of her STD screening is up to date
