Work injury

[Maddy1211]

Hurt my ankle… it’s super swollen and was told I HAD to go to a McBride clinic by a sup. Today my manager sent me to an urgent care, the dr said it’s sprained put me in a boot and said if your boss thinks it’s safe to deliver then you’re good. It’s throbbing. I call my steward he says let me know what your boss decides. What ?

We had a dude in our building that took 2-3 months of for a super mild ankle sprain. You could probably take a week or so. Feel free to go see your own doctor too.

Get a second opinion. You may have to pay for it yourself.

I've heard of situations where comp refused to pay for it because it was an unauthorized examiner and they were already seen once. And Teamcare certainly won't cover a comp injury. So yes, she might have to pay for it herself. Still a good idea though.

Why did they send him to the clinic if they didn’t think he had a work related injury

Yes exactly doctors are known to refuse service if you tell them its work related and you’re not authorized by your adjuster to go to that doctor

Happened to me and they put me to Unload because it doesn't require a lot of walking.

Be careful with that. I know if Teamcare finds out they are paying for a work related injury they’re going to want their money back.

Happened to me was out a week, think it was a Friday before vaca. If it’s only sprained, not broken, you can work on it if you can take the pain. Actually thought it healed faster working on it rather than sitting around. First few days stay off of it though, ice it and keep it elevated.

Yes that’s what they did. Put me on 5 am - 8 am loading anything under 20 lbs. Ankle is twice as big and bad bruising. Probably going to a different doc today.
