It hurts because it is in reality, a bruise. Unfortunately there's not much you can do. It just has to heal.
There is an herbal substance called "arnica" that you can get in a cream that does help bruises go away faster. I used it after a very serious auto accident and it really helped.
Be careful, I've heard that you can develop a clot from a bad hickey, which can be quite dangerous.

A hickey is a bruise, broken blood vessels underneath the skin. Think banging your knee on the table. It's almost the same as getting a hickey. So, it's gonna hurt.

A hickey is nothing more than a bruise. The bursting blood vessels are what cause the pain

Love bites are basically broken blood vessels, like bruises. That's why it hurts. You can try to put ice on it if it's hurting real bad. Next time, get it in a more concealed place. Hickeys are embarrassing and tacky!

May hurt because it is much like a bruise due to the blood being brought to the surface.
