Angioedema ICD-10-CM Codes

Angioedema can be triggered by allergens, such as certain foods, medications, insect bites, or physical factors like heat or pressure.

While angioedema can often be mild and short-lived, it can be severe if the swelling causes airway obstruction, leading to breathing difficulties.

Treatment often involves antihistamines, corticosteroids, or other medications to reduce swelling and pain. Avoidance of known triggers is also essential.
