How can i get rid of soreness after shoveling snow?

4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Rest.: Shoveling can be surprisingly effortful, and snow can be surprisingly heavy. If you're not accustomed to heavy work or exercise, shoveling can drain you and make you quite sore. Rest will help you recover.
