Narrative

EE was opening drain valve to clean the screen box. When he hit the beater with the maul, the beater turned freely striking his left hand. Noted a raised knot about 3"" above the index finger. EE saw a nurse Friday since he had worked too many hours to hold over. Initial first aid reclassified to MT when injection of anti-inflamatory medication was given.
