How about painless as an adjective!
An aching heart!
A painless heart!

You can't simply change the state of something in pain by adding a "u" as a prefix Smile

I guess Jon is looking for a verb opposite to ache, and then he wants to form an adjective from it by adding ing at the end. (like hating -> loving)
But I can't thing of one. - a tough question !
