## Narrative

EE used an 8lbs hammer and struck a ratchet to break a volt loose. When he did he felt pain in his right shoulder. EE worked until 8/27/10 and had surgery for a torn rotator cuff. It was initially diagnosis as a shoulder sprain. I am classifying this as an occupational illness due to the report provided by the treating physician. See attached.
