Meditation is one of the great ways by which you can do that.

Pain Meditation
By means of Meditation, we can learn to observe the pain without getting influenced by its emotional aspects. We direct our attention to the experience of discomfort and try to welcome this as a challenge instead of something painful.

Sure, Pain is a normal part of life, but it shouldn't stop you from doing the things that you've always wanted to do. It is therefore helpful to have Meditation as a way of alleviating the Pain. Please remember, however, that we do not claim that Meditation can be a cure for the pain itself, but rather as a means of helping you cope with it. If the Pain becomes so bad that it is already unbearable even with Meditation then it is best to see the doctor immediately.
