M90.2: Osteopathy in other infectious diseases classified elsewhere
Osteopathy in other infectious diseases classified elsewhere (ICD-10 M90.2) indicates damage or problems with the bones (osteopathy) that result from an infectious disease affecting another part of the body. Essentially, this is when an infection in one area of the body spreads or causes issues with your bones. When this happens, you might experience a variety of symptoms, which can range from pain and swelling to decreased mobility in certain joints, depending on which bones are affected. It can occur as part of many different types of infectious diseases. The progression and outcomes of this condition vary widely and mostly depend on the underlying infectious disease and other individual patient factors. It is crucial to manage the underlying infectious disease to mitigate its impact on the bones.
