Good luck and hope it gets better soon!
Xrays only really show bones and calcium deposits. If he can mow the lawn it's highly unlikely to have fractured it so it will be of limited benefit. Calcium deposits are usually only found >50 or so. But if they were the cause of his pain he would probably not be able to mow the lawn.

Have you been told of the diagnosis? Was it painful arc syndrome?

[Edit] I've just re-read your first post and realised I missed the bit where you mentioned the lack of apparent cause.
