Correct Billing for Debrided Blister

I debrided a blister 0.5 x 0.4 cm.This was dark red prior to debridement and pink post debridement.How is it billed?

The procedure code that should be billed for the debridement of the blister is CPT 97597. The ICD-10 code that should be billed for the blister of the right foot is S90.821A.
