H90-H95: Other disorders of ear
H93: Other disorders of ear, not elsewhere classified
The ICD-10 H93 group pertains to various disorders of the ear that are not classified elsewhere. This group encompasses a wide range of conditions, many of which may affect the natural ability to hear or maintain balance. These conditions may result from various causes like exposure to loud noise, infections, aging, or certain medications, and can even be a result of congenital abnormalities. Symptoms associated with these disorders often include ringing or buzzing in the ears (tinnitus), vertigo or a sense of imbalance, and hearing loss. The disease progression can vary greatly, from acute episodes that resolve quickly, to chronic conditions that may slowly worsen over time. The primary system affected by these disorders is the auditory system, although other structures within the ear may also be involved.
