Impacted wisdom teeth
I'm having pain around impacted wisdom teeth. I've had RCT done next tooth to wisdom one few weeks ago. When dentist hit on wisdom teeth it didn't pain but pain hit on RCT one it pained but on sides of the tooth. I'm having sharp pain if i drink or tea anything hot such as lukewarm water or meal. Is it due to RCT or impacted wisdom teeth? Should i remove my impacted wisdom teeth?

It's better you remove your impacted tooth.
You should have removed it even before doing rct for the previous tooth.
The wisdom teeth is cross direction it might give pressure over your rct tooth which will appear as if it's pain in rct tooth.
While caping for rct tooth your wisdom tooth might have got damaged a little bit which will result in the type of pain which you are experiencing.

Need to see if the rct is proper. Anyway do get your impacted tooth removed since that would cause food judgement and decay of the rc treated tooth again. The wisdom tooth looks decayed too
