Workmans Comp question...

Discussion in 'General' started by My Fax, Oct 5, 2007.

  1. Here's the deal, I have Polyps in my nasal cavity and they're really a pain in the ass. It's just a big lump that blocks all air passageway. Well, this week, they seem to have become infected. I'm just constantly leaking blood and yea, it's pretty gross.

    I believe the reason it has become infected is because of certain chemical dust/vapor I inhale at work. I work at a chemical warehouse.

    Now, during a workman's comp meeting a while ago, we were told that all injuries must be reported within 24 hours, or else the company isn't responsible.

    Like, I said, it's been about a week since I noticed the infection, and while I can't prove that it's because of the chemicals, I'm almost 100% sure.

    How would I go about filing for workman's comp on something like this? Should I get a doctor's note that says the reason is because of work, or what?

    Help me out. :wave:
