Hpi

both her legs were burned with boiling water. it spilled on her legs as it was knocked over . she has antibiotic ointment on it and soaked in cool water. this occurred just prior to coming in.
Mom flushed the area with cold running water prior to coming over


I'm counting 3 elements. location, duration, context. Am I missing something?
My provider is asking why can't I count "mom flushed area with cold running water" as modifiying factor. If they do not document if this helped or not I do not count it. Am I being to detailed?
