Congestion from a cold can cause the eustachian tubes to swell shut. They are connected to the throat, and allow the pressure to equalize between your inner ear and the atmosphere. If this cannot occur, it can cause earaches. In addition, there can be an infection in the tubes or inner ear that can cause pain.
If it does not clear up in a day or so, or if it gets worse, your doctor can treat it. In the meantime, gargling and drinking warm liquids, and perhaps warm compresses on the ear, may help. Aspirin (or acetaminophen for children) may help relieve the pain.
