In my opinion,,if the root canal treatment is not done properly or medicines have not been taken adequately and specifically,,then there may be such problems faced by the patient as you are explaining,,so visit an experienced endodontist asap.

The swelling is probably due to some residual infection which has not been eliminated or some other adjacent tooth. Please check with your dentist. You may need recleaning of the tooth.
