How Can Severe Cold And Earache Be Treated?

I have a bad cold and severe congestion. Pain started in right ear last night. This was followed by severe tinnitus. Pain has lessened but just noticed a bloody discharge from the ear. What is our best course of treatment? We have a call into our doctor, but she is not in the office.
