Because of your cold you're probably very congested, which is affecting your ear. Take a decongestant tablet two or three times a day. This is probably going to help your ear. Your medical doctor is the best person to see for the correct decongestant medicine. make an appointment to see the doctor as soon as possible. You should feel better within a few days of Taking the proper medicine.

The odds are great that it's because of your cold. Although, if you don't start hearing better soon, I would suggest going to an audiologist for a hearing screening, and to check for wax. I don't know where you live, but where I am, they often do the screenings for free, and even free wax removals often.
So yea, give it a couple days, if not improvement, definately get in for a screening! BEST WISHES!
