Narrative

Miner was removing a slusher block from an eye pin at the face and felt something ""give out"" in left shoulder. Miner was diagnosed with a muscle strain of the left rotator cuff at the shoulder, and a sprain of the left AC joint. Cleared to return to work with restricted duty (no lifting above shoulder height with left arm). Recommended Physical Therapy evaluation and treatment.
