2015 Ark. App. 482ARKANSAS COURT OF APPEALS DIVISION II No. CV-15-209 Opinion Delivered September 16, 2015 DENNIS SCHLUTERMAN APPELLANT APPEAL FROM THE ARKANSAS WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION [NO. G010248] V. BECKO MACHINE WORKS and AFFIRMED AMTRUST NORTH AMERICA APPELLEES PHILLIP T. WHITEAKER, Judge Appellant Dennis Schluterman appeals an Arkansas Workers’ Compensation Commission (Commission) decision determining that his left-hand condition was not a compensable consequence of his admittedly compensable right-hand injury. Schluterman contends that there was insufficient evidence to support this determination. The Commission’s decision adequately summarizes Schluterman’s testimony, the previous workers’ compensation claim with respect to Schluterman’s right hand, and the relevant medical records. Further, the Commission exercised its duty to make determinations of credibility, weigh the evidence, and resolve any conflicts in the testimony and evidence. Ark. Methodist Med. Ctr. v. Blansett,
