Tendinitis?: Overuse can lead to tendinitis or inflammation of the tendons that move the fingers and wrist. This can occur after particularly heavy lifting or working more hours than usual. Try ice to affected area when he gets home for 15-20 mins. Use some Ibuprofen or aleve (naproxen). If this does not help, he should see a hand surgeon.
