Code Description

ICD-10 L41.3 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of small plaque parapsoriasis.

Key Diagnostic Point:

L41.3 refers to small plaque parapsoriasis, a skin condition characterized by small, scaly patches that may resemble psoriasis but are typically less inflammatory. This condition is often benign and may resolve spontaneously. However, it can sometimes progress to more severe forms of skin disease, necessitating careful monitoring. Treatment options may include topical corticosteroids or phototherapy, depending on the patient's symptoms and the extent of the condition.
