Burning with Urination ICD-10-CM Codes

‍R30.9—Painful micturition, unspecified, is another ICD-10 code for painful urination. Both are not valid as principal diagnoses. We excluded this in this guide and decided to settle for R30.0 because it uses the medical term for painful urination.

Genital infections, bladder inflammations, prostate diseases, cancer, endometritis, diverticulitis, and diverticulosis are other conditions that can cause dysuria. So, use the specific ICD-10 codes for whichever of these you’ve identified as the cause.

It depends on what caused it. If UTI is the cause, then antibiotics will be administered and prescribed. If it’s caused by prostate problems, diabetes, or cancer, then those need to be addressed to treat dysuria.
