If you are injured or become ill due to your job, you are entitled to Workers' Compensation benefits, which cover medical bills and partial lost wages. This applies regardless of who was at fault, and crucially, regardless of your immigration status.
Do not hide your injury out of fear of getting fired, and do not use your personal health insurance. Report the injury to your employer in writing immediately and state clearly at the clinic that it is a workplace injury.
