My left ear has been blocked for 2 days and now has started paining. This happened after a flight. The right ear went back to normal but the left one has been paining a lot from yesterday. Feels like something is stuffed inside but won't come out.

You seem to be suffering from otitic barotrauma due to air travel. Usually it occurs because of environmental pressure changes during high altitudes. Usually it will resolve on its own within few days. You can use decongestant medicines for few days for faster recovery
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
