If you ask for help in a shop (for example) a longer sentence is usually more polite:
Can you help?
Can you help me?
I wonder, can you help me?
I wonder, could you possibly help me?
I wonder, could you possibly help me please?
This is generally true. A more roundabout phrase tends to be more polite. (And of course, with "please".)
I don't think the tense is involved at all, and certainly you would never say "wish" in this context.
Also, as @xSummer pointed out "I hoped you would help me." is not useful in this situation (see my examples).

A:
Hi!
"Do you feel better?" is correct, or you could ask "Are you feeling better?" (This is used often).
If your friend is drunk you would say "He's drunk" since he is still drunk. If he is not drunk anymore, then you would use "He was drunk".
Hope that helps!
