T03.0: Dislocations, sprains and strains involving head with neck

You have injured joints in your head or neck.

An injured joint may be dislocated, for example. The bones in the joint are then no longer properly aligned. Cartilage, ligaments or the joint capsule may also be injured. The body’s ligaments consist of tough connective tissue. Ligaments hold the joints together and ensure that we can move our joints normally. Joints are encased in a joint capsule.

Additional indicator

On medical documents, the ICD code is often appended by letters that indicate the diagnostic certainty or the affected side of the body.

  • G: Confirmed diagnosis
  • V: Tentative diagnosis
  • Z: Condition after
  • A: Excluded diagnosis
  • L: Left
  • R: Right
  • B: Both sides
