Seriously, he needs a steroid. The codeine is just for pain. The steroid will actually reduce the swelling that's causing him the pain, especially when he first wakes up in the morning, which is when it's usually the worst. Call his doctor and ask about it. Insist that they prescribe him one.

I hope he feels better soon.
