The big question is whether he has lawyered up yet. If he has, in the long run it might be cheaper to just have him sit.
I ran a multiton paper cart over my foot once in a printing factory, I told no one and just hobbled around for a few months. Tell him to take a couple days off to spend alot of time standing naked in front of a mirror while studying some basic anatomy and physiology. have him pay particular attention to the area where his legs intersect. Tell him in a lot of cases, there is what appears to be a worm holding a handbag with two walnuts in it. If he discovers that that is in fact there, tell him to nut up and be a mand and get back to work before you put him in a dress.
