Ear pain post cough and cold

Question

Asked for Female, 29 Years

Hi Doctor I was suffering from cough and cold since 12th August. On 15th august I took a flight, during which I had ear pain due to pressure difference. After the flight journey, ear pain went away and by 20 th August Cough and cold was also gone. But from 21st August onwards I started feeling pressure in one ear along with mild pain. It feels blocked, I am able to hear though. I also often get sputum but without any coughing. Ear pain makes it different to sleep in one direction. Is it normal? Really worried.
