Narrative

EE was using a stationary crane to lift an air compressor. The crane lifted the compressor but only has manual swing capability. When EE pushed the compressor EE felt a slight pain in the back but did not report it as EE did not feel it was significant. The next day the pain was worse, EE reported it and sought treatment.
