Unfortunately, they go at life so hard they seem to just do this stuff!
I can tell you it was no fun trying to keep Jones "quiet" for one week when he messed up his shoulder a few months back. You just have to crate him, and then only let him out for short breaks, and only on a leash.
You better find some toys that he really likes, and hopefully the vet will give you something to help keep him calm... Jones ate the meds the first time, then decided to spit them out after that. I had to put them on the back of his tongue, grab his muzzle, hold his mouth tightly closed, tilt his head back, and stroke his throat until he swallowed, every time, or NADA!
Much sympathy for you and Bowie! And, no fireworks!
