Hi,
Yes, strenuous work can cause severe aches. The best thing is to give it rest, massage the muscles and it's would take a little Time to settle.
If Ibuprofen has really not worked for you and pain is too much you can use Percocet, there is no harm in using it for a limited time. You need to be careful with your gym in future.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
