Slight pain after rct
Its been 4 days since I had my rct. But if I press that teeth or move my jaw vigorously, it pains slightly. More of a tingling tenderness. Is that normal? How many days after rct, the pain totally subsides?

It takes 2 to 3 weeks to completely subside. Don't keep testing it again and again. You can do warm saline rinses a few times a day.

The soft tissue area under your rct tooth can be a little irritated and swollen .. giving the symptoms as you mentioned. Give time for the tissues to heal naturally and also pls visit your dentist to rule out any high point in the filling done post rct
