i-Human Management Plan Primary Diagnosis and ICD-10 code: Testicular Torsion: ICD-10-CM Code N44.00 Testicular Torsion occurs from the twisting of the spermatic cord, which in turn compromises the supply of blood to the testicles (Burns et al., 2017). It is one of the most dramatic processes that affects the supply of blood to the testicles. It is one of the most serious conditions since it affects scrotal contents and may lead to loss of a testicle. Among the symptoms of the condition is that the patient experiences a sudden pain in the scrotum, the swelling of the scrotum, vomiting and nausea, frequent urination, fever, and one of the testicles is positioned higher at an unusual angle. Differential diagnosis. Other possible conditions that could be caused by the symptoms exhibited by the patient include; 1. Epididymitis: ICD-10-CM Code N45.1 Acute epididymitis is the inflammation of the epididymis and the pain is so severe. The condition is caused by chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhea. It can also be caused by dysfunctional voiding, anomalies of the genitourinary tract, tubercular infection, and coliform bacterial (Burns et al., 2017). Some of the common symptoms of the condition may include: blood in the semen, discharge from the penis, testicular pain, and painful urination. I would not consider this since the patient did not have penis discharge, blood in semen, painful urination, and based on the information provided, the patient was not sexually active. 2. Herni
