Options are not provided in the question. I found the answer on the internet.

Answer: CPT code reported is 26010-F5
26010-F5 is a CPT code that refers to drainage of finger abscess.
F5 means right hand thumb. Since in the above question the patient presents abscess of the right hand thumb, it will be F5 and the fluid is drained so it will be 26010. So, the CPT code will be 26010-F5.
