## Narrative

While cleaning a part, the employee got D-Limonene (stripper oil) inside of his glove and on his left arm. At that time the affected area was washed with soap and water. The injury worsened over the weekend and the employee was then examined by a doctor. It was diagnosed as a chemical burn/cellulitis and the doctor prescribed Silvadene Cream and Bactrim DS to prevent infection.
