You need to visit a dentist and get an xray done of that tooth. The description that you have mentioned is insufficient to provide a rational diagnosis at this point without a look at the present clinical condition.
The pain can be due to re infection in the tooth (which can happen even after root canal treatment) or can be due to infection in any other tooth or the gums near that area in which a vague pain is felt in an area and it is sometimes difficult to isolate the exact origin of the pain.
If it is possible you can also post that x-ray on Practo so that the dentists on this platform can give you a better opinion.
Regards.
