This is called facet syndrome. Unfortunately there was no ICD-9 code for this condition. However, diagnosis coding guidelines (in ICD-9 and ICD-10) inform us that codes with other, other specified, or not elsewhere classified in the description are for conditions that are not described elsewhere.
Although water itself cannot rot or expire, over time a plastic bottle will leach hydrocarbons into the water (especially if the bottle is exposed to head or light) â¦ . This will first make the water taste bad, and eventually render it undrinkable. Water bottled in glass will not have these problems.
Water with a shelf life must be replaced whether it is consumed or not, which increases sales. Bottled water is, for the most part, an ecological disaster. The plastic is not fully recycled--much of it ends up in land fills, or burned in waste to energy plants.
