What does this ICD code mean?

What does that M70.9 code actually mean when it shows up in a diagnosis? (EEG)

M 70 indicates bursitis, while _,9 likely refers to the specific location... I suppose 😕

We really ought to consult that black medical manual, but it's nowhere to be found in the vicinity 😁

But there isn't anything Google can't dig up 😁

M 70.9 = Soft tissue disorders related to use, overuse, and pressure

P.S. Is it possible you're dealing with forearm issues from overusing your mouse? 😉
(A rhetorical question, 😁 )

Bursitis? What even is that?

No... I mean, I'm getting these twitches, but it's definitely not in my forearm.

We should probably check the ICD manual, but I can't find it anywhere nearby. 😁

In our system, _,9 is used in almost all ICD diagnoses to mean "unspecified"... so this would be unspecified bursitis, without any specific location or cause noted.
