Narrative

Employee twisted knee exiting coal pile behind miner. EE was taken to hospital & issued full release. EE continued working EE's normal job, & is still working, but had fluid removed from the knee on 3/26/16. The removal of fluid constitutes more than normal first aid therefore making the incident medically reportable.
