I've found ice packs to be a good distraction (like head banging?) and hot showers to be a pain relief, but only while I'm in the shower. Pain returns as soon as I get out, and the hot tub doesn't offer relief.
A couple of times when nothing gives relief, I've considered holding an ice pack over my eye while standing in the shower. Haven't tried it yet, though.
Anyway, I guess my point is that we all have different bodies, so it makes sense that we all have different reactions...and triggers.
