Subject: Extension for Sick Leave Needed

Dear Mr./Ms. (Name of recipient),

I am writing to bring to your attention my current sick leave status. I have been off from work for the past ten days owing to an accident which caused me acute back problems. However, despite the bed rest and medication, there has not been any improvement with regard to the pain and difficulties with movement. The doctor has advised me to undergo a minor surgery, which will be scheduled early next week. For this purpose, I need leave for at least two more weeks, starting from (starting date) till (end date).

I am attaching the necessary reports and doctors’ certificates with this email. Kindly put me in touch with someone I can speak to about the company medical insurance for employees.

I have also been in constant contact with my colleagues who are covering my shifts at work and there have been no major issues yet. However, I deeply apologize for the inconvenience I may be causing. I hope you will empathise with my situation and grant me this leave extension.

Yours sincerely,

(Your name)
