DOUCET, Judge.
This is an appeal from a trial court judgment in a workers’ compensation suit.
Luchious Jefferson was injured on December 7, 1989, while working as a timber cutter for Greer Timber Co. (Greer). A part of a tree fell and hit him in the face, fracturing his cheekbone. Although he sought care, the fracture was not discovered until December 21, 1989. Dr. Keith Christy performed surgery on December 22,1989 to repair the fracture. Dr. Christy released Jefferson to go back to work on January 25, 1990. Jefferson, however, did not return to work, alleging that he was still disabled.
