because your ears actually have a tube that reaches to your mouth. it is small but it still counts and can be felt. a cold is bacteria building up in your mouth and back of your throat area. the bacteria grows and can clog the tubes that go to your ears, hence the ear plugging.

How many times is he who has an ear mentioned in the bible?

At times, Jesus challenged believers to have "ears to hear" and thus be willing to draw close to God and listen to what He has to say. Matthew 11:15 "He that hath ears to hear, let him hear." Matthew 13:9 "Who hath ears to hear, let him hear." Matthew 13:43 "Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear." Mark 4:9 "And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear." Mark 4:23 "If any man have ears to hear, let him hear." Mark 7:16 "If any man have ears to hear, let him hear." Luke 8:8 "And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bare fruit an hundredfold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear." Luke 14:35 "It is neither fit for the land, nor yet for the dunghill; but men cast it out. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear." A similar challenge appears in Ezekiel 3:27, and 8 more occur in the Book of Revelation. This makes a total of 17 occurrences referring to those with "ears to hear."
