You seem to be suffering from eustachian tube dysfunction which usually occurs secondary to common cold and air travel. Usually it will resolve on its own within few days. You can use decongestant medicines for few days for faster recovery. Ear drops are usually not beneficial
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
