Scheuermann's disease is a spinal disorder characterized by abnormal growth of the vertebrae in the upper back, leading to a rounded or hunched posture. The ICD-10 code for Scheuermann's disease is M42.0. This code falls under the category of "Other and unspecified dorsopathies" in the Musculoskeletal system and connective tissue chapter. It specifically refers to the condition where the thoracic region is affected.

On the other hand, the ICD-9 code for Scheuermann's disease is 732.0. In the ICD-9 system, this code is found in the category of "Other and unspecified disorders of bone and cartilage." It relates to the thoracic region as well.

Scheuermann's disease is typically diagnosed during adolescence when abnormal spinal curvature becomes apparent. Symptoms may include back pain, stiffness, and postural abnormalities. Treatment options vary depending on the severity of the condition, ranging from physical therapy and exercises to bracing or, in rare cases, surgery.

It is important to consult a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate management of Scheuermann's disease.
