M62: Other disorders of muscle
M62.8: Other specified disorders of muscle
The condition identified as 'Other specified disorders of muscle' under the ICD-10 M62.8 code refers to a specific diagnosis associated with muscle disorders not otherwise categorized under conventional muscle disease classifications. This category encompasses a diverse range of disorders that might affect the muscle tissues, demonstrating the complexity and variability of muscle health. Symptoms commonly seen in these conditions include muscle weakness, pain or discomfort, swelling, or restricted movement. These disorders may result from a variety of causes, such as genetic factors, complications from existing medical conditions, physiologic records, or adverse response to certain medications. As they affect the muscle, they might hamper the normal functioning of the musculoskeletal system and, in turn, can have a significant impact on a person's mobility and overall quality of life. Since this category includes a broad range of disorders, disease progression and prognosis can greatly differ depending on the specific disorder present.
