An acute '''upper airway obstruction''' is a actual physical '''blockage''' of the '''upper airway''', which can be in the trachea, voice box (laryngeal), or throat (pharyngeal) areas. Please don't use this code unless there is an actual physical blockage.

*Causes of upper airway obstruction include:

**Allergic reactions in which the trachea or throat swell closed~~, including allergic reactions to a bee sting, peanuts, antibiotics (penicillin), and blood pressure medications (ACE inhibitors)~~

**Allergic reactions in which the trachea or throat swell closed

**Chemical burns ~~and reactions~~

**Chemical burns

**Croup

**Epiglottitis (infection of the structure separating the trachea from the esophagus)

**Epiglottitis (old code: 3303) - (infection of the structure separating the trachea from the esophagus)

**Fire or burns from breathing in smoke

**Foreign bodies -- such as peanuts and other breathed-in foods, pieces of a balloon, buttons, coins, and small toys

**Peritonsillar abscess

**Retropharyngeal abscess

**Throat cancer/tumor

**Tracheomalacia

**Trauma

**Vocal cord problems
