Its not abnormal to have that ear fullness, "underwater" hearing or even a bit spacey feeling for a couple weeks. But like I said when your ears do finally drain, it's HEAVEN!
Treat it like the flu unless youre having bad pain still. Kick back, watch some movies, play some video games or whatever you do to chill when you feel sick. I've found for myself that some Ibuprofen is nice too with them. What you dont take are mixed decongestants. They tend to clog things up worse (cold+sinus+make the world great stuff). Only sudafed (sp?) if necessary.
Hope some of that helps.
