Brief Answer:
Oral muscle relaxants can help.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
If the pain is not getting relieved with these two then you can give tramadol every 6 hours, do a hot compress in the area of injury and ask him to use a wrist brace to provide rest to the wrist. You can also get some oral muscle relaxants prescribed from his physician.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
