see the ear is built of 3 sections:1- outside is the external ear and is the ear lobe and the canal to the ear drum, 2- the middle ear is from the ear drum down the tube called the Eustachian tube all the way to the back of the throat, 3- the inner ear is the hearing part inside the brain:

now since the middle ear's tube passing under the mandibular joint (the jaw joint) any swelling of the ear turns on pain, noises and discomfort in the jaw's movement and any move of the jaw moves the already irritated ear canal!.
ENT docs are those that diagnose but sometimes they also miss!. put in the ear ear drops(medical) and take care of the cold that causes the ears to hurt!.

now for the pains u have avoid swimming for about 10 days and next time wear ear plugs, warm up some olive oil (much better Castor oil - for external use) by placing in a small bottle with dropper and put the bottle in warm water or micro for 15 secs, check the temp on back of your hand if not too hot, then put a few drops(3-5) in the hurting ear, a few minutes and the pain will ease,
