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.

The employee slipped while walking down a set of stairs and landed on EE's back. EE felt good and that it was not necessary to go see a doctor. EE continued to work until 12/24/2022 and then felt bad enough that EE went to the doctor. The doctor told EE to take 10 days off and then return to light duty.
