Intermittently pain from a rct tooth

Question

Asked for Male, 31 Years

I got my rct done around 1.5yr back. I felt pretty normal and no issue after that. But since last several months, sometimes I feel the same tooth become sensible while I drink cold/hot water. Specially during rainy or winter season I usually get more trouble. Taking painkiller in case if trouble persists for 4-5 days works. But what is wrong? Is there any solution? Thanks.

There may be a re infection of the treated tooth. Please visit your dentist and get a x ray done to assertion the cause. Sometimes these infections can be treated with an anti biotic dosage. If it is still occurring then a re RCT should be done. Hope it helps. Cheers..
