ICD10 code of Hemicrania Continua and ICD9 code

Hemicrania continua is a type of chronic headache characterized by continuous, unilateral pain on one side of the head. The ICD-10 code for hemicrania continua is G44.81. This code falls under the broader category of "Other primary headaches" in the ICD-10 classification system. It is important to note that hemicrania continua is a relatively rare condition, and its diagnosis requires careful evaluation by a healthcare professional.

In the previous version of the classification system, ICD-9, hemicrania continua did not have a specific code. However, it was often classified under the general category of "Other headache syndromes" using codes such as 339.89. It is worth mentioning that the ICD-9 code system is no longer in use, as it has been replaced by the more detailed and comprehensive ICD-10 coding system.

Remember, it is always advisable to consult a healthcare professional for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment of any medical condition.
