Hello,

I'm needing help in using the best suitable DX for likely suspicious Post Dural HA. Patient is having the symptom 4 days after giving birth. Are either of the following appropriate:

O90.9 Complication of the puerperium, unspecified
R51.9 Headache, unspecified

or

O90.89 Oth complications of the puerperium
R51.9 Headache, unspecified
