Suggest Treatment For Plugged Ear With Drainage

Hello. I am a 33 year old female who weighs approximately 185 and is 5 10 . I suffered from a head cold last week which included very plugged nose. Once I started to notice my stuffiness going away and drainage occuring, my right ear plugged up. It has been this was for about five days. Now I have a thumping sound in that same ear. It is not my heartbeat. It almost sounds like helicopter blades, that fast and steady. I had this occur Friday night but finally fell asleep and woke up with it gone. But this reoccurring now after one day is scaring me. Any idea what this is or what I can do??
