Earache from a cold can range from mild to very painful. Even when the fluid in the ear is not infected, the pressure it puts on the eardrum, can cause throbbing pain.

In most cases an earache from a cold will make it difficult for you sleep well, have fever, and mucus in the nose. Such an earache usually goes away on its own.

Sometimes an earache could be because of an infection of the middle ear. These ear infections are usually sudden and painful in the beginning. That's because the sensory nerve endings in the eardrum respond to increased pressure with pain.

But in most cases, you should visit your doctor and let your doctor help you know what kind of an earache it is to start treatment at the earliest and help relieve the pain.

The germs can live for hours only to be picked up by the next person who touches the same object. So wash your hands often.
