ICD 10 Coding Concussions

We code concussions for pediatric offices, ICD 9 there was 850.? and then 310.2 Postconcussion Syndrome. Now with ICD 10 there is the initial, subsequent and sequela encounters, that we may need to use. The question is when to use the appropriate code and\or the postconcussion syndrome F07.81? Using the encounters for injuries, fractures, etc is understandable, however a little confusing for consussions.

Would like to know if anyone else is having an issue and any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
