Hi , As per your clinical history it appears as you are having acute otitis media which is common after cough & cold.
You should start Steam Inhalation , Decongestant nasal drops ,Antihistaminic levocetirizine + Montelukast ,for pain Paracetemol + Ibuprofen combination ,Antibiotic azithromycin , Vit C for 7 days.
Keep ear clean and dry (don't put any ear drop).
Hope above information helpful to you.
If you donot get relief , ENT examination become essential.
