Pane after RCT
7-8 months back I had RCT on one tooth but my doctor patiently treated by tooth and closed the RCT after 10-15 sitting But I was feeling discomfort for many days afterwards as well. I could see blood in toothpaste, I used to fill pull in gum area. Also it doesn't hurt much but when the teeth is pressed it hurts. I feel discomfort in that area.
I went to the doctor again he did x ray. In xray nothing came but he saw leakage in the cap as I was having sensitivity issues as well. He has done permanent filling on the leakage areas (all sides of the cap has permanent filling)
The sensitivity has gone now but I still feel irritated in that area. Currently I apply gum paint and do salt gargles.
Please help we what to do what could be a cause of this?

Hi,
Please share a picture of the cap as well as an x-ray of the tooth. Also get your gums checked around the tooth. If there is inflammation, that means there is some irritant around the gums. Gum paint application will give only temporary relief.
