Narrative

The employee was helping lift replacement blow bars for the crusher repair. EE went to lift the blow bar and felt a funny pinch in their back. After resting for a minute, EE decided it best to go to the hospital for evaluation. The doctor released EE without treatment and told EE not to return to work for three days. All conditions were normal at the time.
