* Just wondering since cellulitis/abscesses are typically bacterial infections, should [[Disorder of oral mucosa (mouth, lips, tongue), NOS]] be used instead combined with [[Infectious disease NOS]] and [[Herpes Simplex virus (HSV)]]? This then would be consistent with other infection coding guidelines whereby there is no specific infection code. Thank you. (Pam)
** Why would you want to use the less specific "Disporder of..." code when we have a this specific "...cellulitis..." code? Which infection coding guideline do you mean, could you link? [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 11:19, 2022 October 19 (CDT)
