It happens due to change in pressure. You should do these excercise call valsalva maneuver in which you fill your mouth with air, then shut your mouth and nose and exhale inwards towards the ear. For better demonstration kindly YouTube how it is to be done. You can even take steam inhalation. That also helps. It will be relieved in a few days. If pain is too much, you should take a paracetamol with it, 1tab twice a day for 3 days.

Decongestant nasal drop- Drop the required number of drops into each nostril. The aim is to get the liquid to spread over all the inside surface of the nose - including the upper surface.
A good position is to lie on a bed with your head hanging back over the edge.
Stay like this for two minutes after putting in the drops before getting up.
