Wiki Perineal abscess

[Hibbs]

I & D of the perineal abscess I did code this 46050-

My manager actually did say that 10061 should be used instead of the 46050, would this be correct?

Well 46050 is for Perianal, and not perineal. Two very different areas. I would say that your manager is correct.
