RCT after tooth extraction
Hi,
I had an extraction of molar tooth and rct of a tooth (pre molar) next to it. On the day of extraction, i had first stage of RCT. Second stage of RCT was done after 5 days. Inspite of local anesthesia, i had pain ( not sensitivity) during second stage of RCT ( which ofcourse subsided after the procedure). But just wondering is it normal? Doc said this could be as extraction area next to it is not healed? Doesnt anesthesia work if adjacent area is not healed?

You don't need to worry about the pain .Since you have mentioned that pain got relieved after the procedure so most probably the cause of pain must have been the infection in your rct treated tooth.
Every person has a different pain threshold and different response to outer stimulus . Also sometimes patients are too anxious because of which they feel the pain, which is actually not of such intensity.
