Your Eustachian Tube which connects your throat with the middle ear is blocked due to cold. The pressure in the middle ear is disturbed and the tympanic membrane is stretched causing disturbance in hearing and may also cause pain. Don't blow your nose forcefully due to congestion from cold otherwise increase in middle ear pressure may puncture your tympanic membrane and then it may take long to heal. Take hot water gargles, steam inhalations and use nasal decongestant drops.
