Answer 1

pain: The first thing to do is get him to a reputable doctor to help him get off the corex as it is probably the Codeine he is addicted to. At ht e same time get him to a podiatrist for the help he needs. Good luck.

Answer 2

NEED FOR CUSHION!: Most shoes aren't always what is bad, usually it's the crummy insoles they come with! there are many possible reasons that you may have painful feet, but try cushioning arch supports like spenco polysorb cross-trainers(http://www.Spenco.Com/products/footcare/poly-sorb). If these don't help, see a podiatrist.... Also try an otc anti-inflammatory, like aleve (naproxen).
