Antiwork

I’m 23 and just found out I have permanently damaged my back due to work. What should I do?

I’ve already told my manager about it and that I’ve been advised against all heavy lifting by my doctors. I was told “you work in a warehouse, if you can’t lift anything then you are of no use here”. I live in a small town in the UK and I’m studying for my degree but I won’t be finished for another 3yrs. Do i just stick it out or what? My manager has also threatened to fire me for working slowly because of the injury but when he heard a coworker telling me to sue the company he came in being all nice and friendly which is bullshit obviously. I have been told that it’ll be very difficult to prove the injury happened at work so I’m not sure what to do with that either
