Narrative

The employee turned his body 45 degrees, at which time he felt a snapping sound in his right knee. The worker's comp carrier considers this incident a non-compensable injury since the employee was not doing anything unusual other than turning his body. The employee did mention that he sustained a right knee injury twelve years ago while playing football in high school.
