Steveson v. Frolic Footwear

MAX MAX KOONCE, II, Judge.

This is an appeal from the Arkansas Workers’ Compensation Commission. Appellant sought medical benefits for treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome and de Quervain’s tenosynovitis. The Commission reversed the decision of the administrative law judge and held that appellant’s injury was not compensable because she had failed to prove that her carpal tunnel syndrome was the major cause of the need for treatment and because there were no objective findings in the record to support the diagnosis of de Quervain’s tenosynovitis. We affirm in part and reverse and remand in part.
