What 𪽯 means
It writes Vietnamese loét and nhoét in the historical Nôm script.
Chữ Nôm adapted Chinese characters and parts of them to write spoken Vietnamese. It took shape after Vietnam regained independence in 939, through a gradual effort by Vietnamese scholars. Here, loét describes a sore that spreads or ulcerates; nhoét can mean very mushy.
The Unicode source record labels it V4-4E56, pointing to Vietnam's Hán Nôm Coded Character Repertoire (2007). Its glyph source is Vũ Văn Kính and Nguyễn Quang Xỹ's Tự điển chữ Nôm, a dictionary of Nôm characters published in 1971; a 2022 Unicode proposal called for the reference form to match that book's 弔 component.

1Why does 𪽯 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
