Hello,
I suggest you to use ice pack or hot compresses, switch off the light drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration. He should use ibuprofen to relieve the pain. If he has lightheaded or the pain continues make MRI.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
