Wiki How to code bruising due to high doses of ibuprofen?

try looking under ecchymosis. these codes may not be exact as other parameters are required like was this a therapeutic use or overdose, was the medication taken with other drugs or alcohol and so on.
459.89, E935.6
 
Try 729.92-Nontraumatic hematoma of soft tissue. This code also tells you to assign an E code for drug adverse effects if caused by coumadin or other anticoagulants.
