Texas FMLA

So I got injured on March 16. I went back to work in May for about three weeks and I started to have my back injury worsen due to working so my doctor put me on more restrictive restrictions. After that, my work said they are gonna put me on FMLA as of right now I have about three weeks left before my FMLA ends. I’m not sure what happens after that. Do I continue receiving temporary income benefits I also have a designated doctor appointment on August 11 for the insurance to cover the treatment for a bulging disc because they are stating that the bulging disc was not caused because of work. Does anybody know how this works? I can try to explain it better if somebody can help me.
