Narrative

EE was attempting to move an electrical starter box. He used both hands and upon lifting the box, his left hand slipped off. The weight from the box set down on his right index and middle finger. He pulled out his hand and tore the skin (laceration)away from under the nail of the index finger. He returned to work the same day on restricted duty.
