Over-exertion in pulling or pushing objects

The miner was helping install bolts on equipment and felt a pull in EE's chest. EE reported the incident but thought EE was ok so no doc visit. Monday EE still had pain so went to doc. The doc was not sure if it was a pulled muscle or something else that just showed up when pulling on the wrench. EE was released for light duty until final determination.
