Suggest Medication For Spasm Post Carpel Tunnel Surgery

I had carpel tunnel surgery 3 weeks ago. Incision was not staying closed so doctor put a hard cast on to let them heal on Monday. Started with pain in hand and wrist today. Doctor said it was spasms. I have taken a pain pill and muscle relaxer and got no relief. What can I do?
