ICD codes are used for medical billing, statistical tracking, and research purposes. They help healthcare professionals accurately document and classify diseases, ensuring standardized communication and data analysis across different healthcare settings.

Graves disease is characterized by symptoms such as weight loss, anxiety, palpitations, heat intolerance, and goiter. It is typically diagnosed through clinical evaluation, blood tests to measure thyroid hormone levels, and imaging studies. Treatment options for Graves disease include medication, radioactive iodine therapy, and sometimes surgery.

Remember, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for accurate diagnosis, treatment, and management of Graves disease or any other medical condition.
