Last weekend I did a foolish thing and attempted to unstuck our riding lawn mower after a wheel came off the ramp into the shed and the mower couldn't back up.
I managed to move it using wood I had laying around like a lever, but in doing so I fucked up my shoulders and neck. On top of that I have been sick, low apatite and a cough. Yet on top of THAT, kid 2 gave us about 4 hours of sleep last night.
I'm dogging it. No fevers at all, so not sure what I have, but probably something from either daycare or work (students are back, with all their summer germs).
Here is hoping for better sleep tonight.
Sounds rough comrade, hope you recover soon and your kid catches up on sleep tonight!
Thanks! I've been doing stretches all week and I think most of my neck and shoulder pain has subsided. It doesn't help I sit for most of the day. I've been trying to do some light walking too. Seems to help.
Sounds like the right approach. My wife is a PTA if you want me to ask her for any exercises/stretches that might help, though I know it's harder for her without seeing the injury in person.
Its all good, appreciate it though!
