There are a few things you can use, but it is best to have a veterinarian come out and take a look at the horse and maybe pull a blood sample to see if there is anything wrong with the horse. Also you should re-evaluate the horses current diet to see if there are any issues there as well. With that all said typically biotin is what is added to a horses diet to help with hoof growth, you can also add flax-seed as that helps a tiny bit as well. Just be warned that new and improved hoof growth takes time to show up and you may not see results for many months.

Yes, trimming a horses' hooves too frequently can make the horse sore (or lame). A horses' hoof is similar to a person's fingernail. If you cut them too often, they will begin to hurt.
