Yes, wind whipping in your ear causes a pressure difference which can cause (or worsen) an earache. It happens to me when I climb mountains, or just walk on a cold and windy day.

I recommend carrying small ear plugs with you when you are out. If the wind starts whipping, put them in. It can help a lot.

Not specifically, but you can stimulate pain receptors in your external ear canal. If water is trapped in your outer ear canal, a bacterial infection may occur.
