Hmmm. He's not saying "denudations" by any chance? sm
Subject: Hmmm. He's not saying "denudations" by any chance? sm
I'm thinking it might read:
Denudations x3, right second and fifth DIPJ, and right hallux.
I could be way off. I don't know what nucleations could be unless he has his own meaning for the term. Denudations would make sense if the patient had injured his foot (degloving) or if it were ulcers denuding the epithelium.
You can always just leave it and flag it "as dictated." That would cover you.
Wish I could be of more help.
