To answer your question, you do not hide the pain, but feel it more deeply, go into it, and know that it is there. There is one fundamental difference between you and the pain that you feel divorced of any physical pain - you are real. It is not. Realize this. The emotions - a label - simply are. If you hold your attention on the feeling, and I mean HOLD your attention on them without any mental commentary, judgement, interpretation, labels, or added feelings, simply allowing them to be - maybe for hours at a time - something different will arise. Space.
Please do not analyze this answer with the "lens" of your experience - just try it. Try it first and see how it works. You are real - the pain is not. The pain is simply interpretation felt in the body.
Alternatively: Do an extremely intense workout that leaves you feeling really good. Then drink a really healthy smoothie (I recommend a green smoothie of some sort). Then do what I said above - it might make it easier.
