Narrative

At some points during shift, the employee was bitten by an unknown insect. He noticed it at approx. 10:50 but continued to work. At around 1:00 pm, he noticed the burning and swelling had spread up and down his arm so he reported it. He was evaluated and transported into town, given antibiotics and placed on restricted work duty until swelling went down and reevaluted.
