I literally just had terrible ear pain last week due to a cold. Placing a warm heating pad or a warm cloth against my ear for 10 minutes gave me instant relief. But make sure you don't put any oil or drops inside without a doctor looking at your eardrum first.
Ear pain can be due to an infection, wax, or even throat issues, so guessing won't help. I went to a good ENT hospital when I had it, and they did a proper otoscopy to find the cause. Please ask your doctor clearly before putting any random eardrops.
My son gets bad earaches whenever he catches a cold. I usually give him a warm compress and let him prop his head up while sleeping. If the pain is severe and he can't sleep, we don't wait and take him straight to our pediatrician.
Managing inflammatory issues like PCOS makes me very cautious about how my body reacts to infections. For ear pain, keeping myself upright and drinking warm water helps ease the pressure slightly. I really suggest getting a professional opinion rather than trying risky home remedies.
