No need to worry more about the procedures involved in receiving a cap for your tooth, its completely painless.

make sure you are completely satisfied with the shade(colour) of the artificial cap, before fixing it.

Hi,
As per your query since you got your root canal treatment done 1 year back and you are having some pain I would suggest you to get an X-ray done first to confirm that the root canal is fine and then go for capping.
And for your info capping is not at all painful
