Drainage of a Simple Finger Abscess

Colorado rates for HCPCS 26010

A provider makes a small incision to open and drain a pocket of infection (abscess) in a finger, relieving pressure and allowing pus to escape. This is the more straightforward version of finger abscess drainage, used when the infection is not deeply embedded around the nail or bone. It helps reduce pain and lets the finger begin healing.
