Narrative

Employee was using a pneumatic impact wrench to tighten a bolt. He used his left shoulder to lean against the wrench for more leverage. This resulted in pain to his shoulder and chest. After seeing a medical professional this injury was not MSHA recordable; however the employee wished to get a second opinion at which time it became reportable.
