Additional Info
- Pleurisy is denotes inflammation of the pleura. It is NOT just a symptom.
- It's cardinal symptom is pleuritic chest pain (pain with coughing or with breathing, especially deep breathing, Pain, pleuritic chest pain).
- It may be present with or without Pleural effusion, NOS.
- It can be due to either infectious or noninfectious causes -- thus this code includes viral pleurisy (which is almost always a diagnosis of exclusion).
