Narrative

EE was pulling on a big wrench to tighten a nut when he felt a pop in his left shoulder. He initially reported it as only a first aid and did not think he needed medical attention. The following day he had pain and swelling in his left shoulder and was taken to the company doctor in the morning. He was diagnosed with an ""strain/impingement"", given meds and placed on light duty.
