Brief Answer:
Hydrocodone is good for controlling back and foot pain.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Hydrocodone 10 mg twice daily for 5 days is the dosage for controlling back and foot pain.
It is an opioid narcotic pain medication.
I would also advise you to do an MRI of the lumbosacral spine.
Dizziness, lightheadedness, XXXXXXX, nausea are the side effects of medication which can be managed symptomatically.
Hope I have answered your query.
