I am struggling with a diagnosis code that will show the reason for a tenotomy that was performed in a wound clinic setting. The patient has a toe ulcer on the left second toe and she has a hammertoe next to the second toe that is putting pressure on the wound. The physician performed a tenotomy to allow the hammertoe to straighten discontinue rubbing the wound. I would appreciate any help you can give me.
