Supreme Court allows compensation for CRPS and shoulder/neck injuries sustained after the original work accident.

The Supreme Court allowed the claimant's request for compensation regarding complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) and subsequent shoulder and neck injuries sustained after the initial work accident. The claimant argued that these later medical conditions were causally linked to the original fracture of the ulnar styloid process, despite the initial compensation period ending in late 2007. The court ruled that the causal connection between the original injury and the subsequent chronic pain and musculoskeletal issues was established, permitting further compensation.
