Well think about it. Residual is the left over of something. In this case the precipitating factor (i.e. surgery, procedure, illness, disease exacerbation).

Residual Weakness would be the weakness experienced after a surgery, procedure, etc.

General Weakness (also generalized weakness) is the description of symptoms of weakness (lethargy, poor balance, inability to ambulate, etc.) and is thus not a dx but rather a symptom as factors cause weakness and humans are generally not weak unless something is causing it such as (Diabetes, obesity, Parkinson's).

You probably wont find a Icd9 code for it as its a symptom (v code) and a very general one at that.

What is residual gravity?

Residual gravity is the effective gravity that exists between the earth-moon or the earth-sun combination. When two heavenly bodies interact such as the earth and the sun there is a difference in mass which causes a residual gravity to exist in the space between them. This residual gravity is responsible for the earth's orbit.
