Narrative

Employee says he was prying on a drive sprocket and felt a slight pull in groin area. This was not reported until 2/28/07. He says he did not report it as he thought it amounted to nothing. His Dr wanted him to cease activity for 2 weeks as he had a previous hernia repair in the proximity of his soreness.
