Description
This cause is before us on appeal of an order awarding unspecified compensation benefits. For the following reasons, we reverse. In November 1987, claimant was injured in a work-related accident when she was struck on the arm by a piece of steel. Claimant was treated at an outpatient medical center, and released to work the same day with no limitations. Claimant continued working but was terminated two weeks later for reasons unrelated to her injury.1{/Cite} On January 11, 1988, claimant's authorized physician, Dr. Thompson, diagnosed slight tenderness in the biceps region but good range of motion in the wrist, elbow, and shoulder of the injured arm. Dr. Thompson released claimant to work on this date. On February 15, 1988, Dr. Thompson rediagnosed claimant and found tenosynovitis but noted that claimant had full range of motion with her arm.
