Do you have a bathtub? Probably too hot for a hot bath there where you live, but you could try a warm relaxing bath with some epsom salts. Just don't overdo it with the salts.

A push mower with a motor or a reel mower( no motor)?
If a motor - the noise & vibration could be part of it too.

With a motor. I had my ear buds in also. I knew I shouldn't have pushed myself to finish mowing after I came in the first time. It was the first "real" physical exertion where I had pushed myself hard.

I've been avoiding mowing my grass for two summers now and hired a local kid to do it for me.
At first I thought it was exertion and the noise, but I feel like I'm very sensitive to vibrations. Even something as simple as vacuuming floors would cause issues. Getting haircuts with electric clippers is an issue, I had a bad setback after the last haircut. Driving on rough roads, especially when we have snow and it creates a "washboard" effect, gives me huge issues.

12/02/2012 - Light concussion at boxing practice. Ended up having PCS for about 3 months. March 2013 - Thought that since most of my symptoms resolved I could start having fun again. Went snowmobiling once (didn't hit my head) and concussion symptoms returned and got even worse than before. June 2013 - accidentally bumped my head against a deck railing, and had a month-long setback. November 2013 - drove to work after a big snowstorm and the roads were very rough, ended up having another setback. 2014 - Having setbacks after coughing/sneezing too much, or someone slapping me on the back, or any other significant jarring. Feb 2014 - Started seeing Atlas Orthogonal chiro - most helpful doc so far. June 2014 - Two months of physical/visual therapy - no noticeable improvement. September 2014 - Diagnosed with Perilymph Fistula in right ear. November 2014 - Fistula surgery (switched to left ear before the surgery after additional testing). January 2016 - Quit work to "work" on figuring out PCS, so far it seems that eyes/vision issues are the most contributing factor, especially computer work. Current symptoms are: inconsistent sleep patterns, headaches, vertigo/dizziness, anxiety/panic attacks, mental fog/problems with concentration, problems with computer screens. |

Silly Lara.
 I thought you meant a push type mower without a motor. I use one of those ones. Hard work but makes the grass nice. I agree, it could be the vibrations and noise and well as over exerting yourself. |

You must not have much grass or grass that is not thick. I used to use one. You develop lots of arm strength with them.
